Vichy France arrests over 12,000 Jews

Friday, June 13, 1941 www.onwar.com

In Vichy France... The Vichy government announces that more than 12,000 Jews have been arrested and are being “interned” in concentration camps because of a “Jewish plot” to hinder Franco-German cooperation. The anti-Semitic laws in Vichy are being extended to include the expropriation of Jewish-owned businesses without compensation.

In Syria... On the coast the Australian forces begin attacks around Sidon.

In the Soviet Union... The news agency Tass issues an official denial that there is tension between Germany and the USSR. It states that “there could be no misunderstanding between the two countries.”
