-==History==
-On 7 September 1937 [[Joseph Stalin]] signed a list of persons to be judged by a Soviet Military commission.  The list was also signed by [[Vyacheslav Molotov]], [[Lazar Kaganovich]], [[Klim Voroshilov]] and [[Nikolay Yezhov]].  There were trials related to persons from the [[Byelorussian Soviet Socialist Republic|Belarusian SSR]]  and these were given in a different list dated 15 September 1937 and signed by Stalin, Molotov and the senior state security official [[Vladimir Tsesarsky]].  The list of people from the Belarusian SSR sentenced to be executed included 103 persons, and six more persons who were sentenced to ten or more years in concentration camps.
-The initial list was extended by the [[NKVD]] of the Belarusian SSR.  People added to the list by the NKVD of Belarus are marked with an asterisk (*) in the list below.  The executions took place in the [[Minsk]] [[Amerikanka|internal NKVD prison (known as the Amerikanka)]].   Journalist [[Leanid Marakou|Leanid Marakoŭ]] alleged that between 3 March 1937 and 22 May 1938, over 100,000 people fell victims of repressions by the Soviet authorities.
