The killings resumed in the summer of 1942, when 800 people were shot, mostly old people and children, and continued throughout the year. In the summer and autumn of 1942, part of the Jewish specialists from the liquidated ghettos in the Kamianets-Podilskyi region were deported to the city ghetto. At the end of autumn, the number of prisoners in the ghetto was approximately 5,000 people. They were sent to a new ghetto, which the invaders had created on the territory of the former chemical institute. Already in the first days of November 1942, when the 4,000 Jewish prisoners who remained in the ghetto were shot, it ceased to exist.
