Background
The Dubravny Camp, Special Camp No.3 (ÐÑбÑавнÑй лагеÑÑ, ÐÑобÑй лагеÑÑ â 3), commonly known as the Dubravlag (Russian: ÐÑбÑавлаг), was a Gulag labor camp of the Soviet Union located in Yavas, Mordovia from 1948 to 2005. The Dubravlag was founded as one of several Gulag special camps in the Mordovian ASSR for political prisoners with a large population of Soviet dissidents. The Dubravlag became a corrective labor camp (ITL) in 1954 and part of the regular Soviet penitentiary system after the Gulag system was dissolved in 1960. The Dubravlag was operated by Russia after the dissolution of the Soviet Union in 1991 until it was converted into a prison of the Federal Penitentiary Service in 2005.
