The assistant reads this record's own source passages and the people and places connected to it, then searches trusted archives — Yad Vashem, USHMM, Arolsen, JewishGen, Virtual Shtetl, YIVO — and shows what it found, with its sources.

... כבר החשיד והגרמנים התחילו להעלות אש, כדי להאיר את הגיטו. צבי שאל את הרש ל, אם מסכים הוא לרוץ. הרש ל ענה "לא". כוחותיו עזבוהו. ״עכשיו או לעולם לא״ — קרא צבי והתחיל לרוץ. הגרמנים יורים ורודפים אחריו. כעבור רגעים אחדים חזרו ואמרו: ״חיסלנו אותו״ 4
