I visited the USSR thirty years ago,and I remember visiting the large cemetary which commemorated those who were killed during the siege of Leningrad. Can anyone give me the logistics on the graves:the sizes and how many?

1,500.000 are estimated to have died of cold and starvation and 1,400.000, mainly women and children were evacuated - many of whom died during the evacuation.

One cemetery alone holds half a million victims of the siege.
