During the first days of WWII, Rawa was heavily bombed, and its population was severely affected. The Germans entered the town on Sept. 8, 1939, at which time males were gathered in the market square, where the Germans indulged in a sadistic game.
Among other things, many of the dignitaries, mostly aged, were made to run several kilometres in the direction of TomaszΓ³w. In a nearby wood the Germans threatened to kill them.
During #WWII, π΅π± suffered the greatest personal & material losses out of all European countries, in terms of total population and national assets.
