Einsatzgruppe Serbia

Einsatzgruppe Serbia, initially named Einsatzgruppe Yugoslavia, was a German Schutzstaffel (SS) grouping in the German-occupied territory of Serbia during World War II. Directly responsible to the Reich Security Main Office in Berlin, EG Serbia consisted of representatives of the various offices of the RSHA, particularly Amt IV – the Gestapo, Amt V – the Kriminalpolizei, and Amt VI – the Ausland-Sicherheitsdienst. It also controlled the 64th Reserve Police Battalion of the Ordnungspolizei. While formally responsible to the Military Commander in Serbia via the head of the administrative branch of the military headquarters of the occupied territory, the chief of EG Serbia reported directly to his superiors in Berlin.
