While fighting continued the Jewish population of Taviana was deported to death camps in Poland while the native population of Taviana was forced in to labour, manufacturing weapons.

Today Taviana is still one of the Soviet Union’s key allies and serves as an important strategic location for the Soviet Union as well as a important submarine repair base.
