In 1939, the Nazis began the forced removal of three million Polish Jews from their homes and transferred them to crowded Ghettos across Poland, including Europe's largest, the Warsaw Ghetto.
By November 1940, 380,000 Jews were sealed inside the Warsaw ghetto.
By November 1940, 380,000 Jews were sealed inside the Warsaw ghetto.
The 380,000 Jews were crammed into an area of just 1.3 sq miles, surrounded by walls they were forced to build.
Conditions in the Ghetto were horrific.
80,000+ Jews died as a result of overcrowding & starvation. Those who remained alive were completely cut off from the outside.
