Lyelchytsy[a][2] (Belarusian: Лельчыцы, romanized: Lieĺčycy;[b] Russian: Лельчицы, romanized: Lelchitsy; Polish: Lelczyce) is an urban-type settlement in Gomel Region, Belarus.

[1] Lyelchytsy is located by the Ubort River, 251 kilometres (156 mi) southwest of Gomel.

The city was occupied by German troops in late August 1941.

In September 1941 and in early spring 1942, local policemen and German gendarmes murdered Jews of the town in several mass executions.

The last remaining Jews were shot in summer 1942, along with Soviet citizens, under the pretext of having links to the partisans.
