The last purges were carried out by the Soviet Union under Stalin. Lenin ordered him to stop and he shifted to "arresting traitors to the Union." The purges were having a negative effect on the Soviet Union's reputation overseas and causing unrest at home. Sending them to die in the Gulags. More openly after he won the power struggle and took control.I read about some 16th sects which was accused of being jewish,forget name.Dunno if they were jewish,or not.
Ivan terrible/coward/ certainly killed all jews on territories taken from Poland,but...he genocided also Novogrod the Great full of russians,so
