In St. Petersburg, the righteous of the peoples of the world Tamara Romanov died. She saved the Jewish family

In St. Petersburg, in the 100th year of life, Tamara Romanova died, one of the last righteous people of the world who lived in Russia, the Russian Jewish Congress said. She saved the Jewish family during the Second World War.

In July 1941, when the Nazis occupied Zhytomyr, Romanova, along with her sister and mother, covered a classmate Clara Scheinberg and her mother Eugene in her house. Later, the Romanovs gave them their documents so that they could safely leave the city. This helped to survive the occupation to Steinberg.

The Israeli Institute of Memory "Yad Va-shhem" in 1998 awarded Romanova's righteous of the peoples of the world, and the Russian Jewish Congress has been supporting it monthly for many years

In 1998, the Israeli Institute of Memory of Memory of Poles in 1998 awarded Tamara Romanova, the righteous of the peoples of the world, and the Russian Jewish Congress has been supporting it monthly.

“Much later, when Clara sent me a questionnaire to the title of righteous to the poison of Yad Vashem, I was scared,” Tamara Romanova recalled. “I couldn’t get a reward for seeing how they kill other people. I couldn’t force myself to go to the Israeli consulate and give a full questionnaire. I was ashamed during this time.”
