Mira Shelub (born 13 January 1922, Zdzieciol) was a Polish resistance fighter. She co-wrote a memoir about her experience in the resistance titled Never the Last Road (2015)

Early life

Shelub studied at the Real-Gymnasium in Vilna. In 1939 when Germany invaded the area (formerly part of Poland, then Soviet Lithuania), she was forced to return home.

In 1941, she and her family were forced to live in the Zdziedciol Ghetto (also known as the Dzyatlava Ghetto), in the town of Dzyatlava, in what is now Western Belarus. In 1942 they escaped into the nearby forest and joined a local partisan group.
