The purpose of this article is to highlight the biography of Georgian native Georgiy Zakharovich Dzhinchveladze, who was in Kharkov during the Nazi occupation as a prisoner of war.
Georgiy Zakharovich Dzhinchveladze was born in 1891 in Tiflis (Tbilisi) into a family of Georgian intellectuals. In 1916, he graduated from the medical faculty of Kharkov University and began working as a surgeon. After the Civil War, the Dzhinchveladze family moved to Akhaltsikhe.
On June 22, 1941, Germany attacked the Soviet Union. G.Z. Dzhinchveladze, together with his son Amiran, went to the front. Soon he was captured and taken to Kharkov. The arriving prisoner doctors treated typhus patients, patients with starvation and edema, and wounded prisoners of war.
Soon, Georgiy Zakharovich was transferred to work first in the 7th polyclinic, and later in the 1st city hospital, the 13th school, where the Germans kept seriously wounded captured Red Army soldiers. Grigory Zakharovich escaped and hid with his acquaintances.
On February 15, 1943, Kharkov was liberated and Georgiy Zakharovich was appointed the leading surgeon of the 1st Army sorting hospital. In mid-March, the Germans again occupied the city. Dzhinchveladze decided to stay with the wounded. On March 14–17, 1943, the Germans killed wounded Red Army soldiers: they burned them, shot them, and mutilated their bodies. Thus, about 800 people were killed.
After escaping from the hospital, Georgiy Zakharovich got a job as a resident doctor in the surgical department of the Oleksandrivska Hospital. A traitor found out and betrayed G.Z. Dzhinchveladze, who again became a prisoner of war.
On August 23, 1943, the Red Army entered Kharkov. For some time, M.Z. Dzhinchveladze continued to work in Kharkov. After the Victory over the Nazis, Georgiy Zakharovich returned to Akhaltsikhe.
In conclusion, it can be stated that in difficult historical periods, the Georgian people extended a helping hand to Ukrainians. And the fate of Georgiy Zakharovich Dzhinchveladze is a vivid example of this.
