"In late 1942, a special mission saved over a hundred Jews from the Iwie ghetto just as the Germans planned to liquidate it. Bielski scouts constantly searched the roads for Jewish escapees in need for protection"(para 5).

The Germans occupied Western Belorussia in 1939, and killed thousands of Jews. The four surviving brothers, Zus, Asael, Tuvia, and Aharon were left to survive on their own. But despite being on their own they not only wanted to save their own life but their surviving family members as well. Once they had recruited at least 30 family members they fled to the Zabiedovo Perelaz woods. They had known some non-Jewish Belorussian friends and they helped them be able to  get German weapons. once they had enough weapons there was to be a liquidation at a ghetto and their jobs were to get as many people out.

Once they had settled they made it their mission to help their fellow Jews. They had encouraged some of the Jews in nearby ghettos to come and live with them in the forest. After the ghetto liquidation there was more than 300 Jews living in the forest with the Bielski partisans.

Tuvia, since being the leader of a 700 Jews group, had a reward on him. The reward was 100,000 Reichmarks leading to his capture. Since being so big the group was very vulnerable to the Germans patrols so they had to do something.

Since the Germans were searching the forest for Tuvia they couldn't risk being found so they moved. They moved to a different forest called Nalibolki. This forest was swampy, damp, and barely accessible tot he river nearby to get water.
