Treblinka

In the spring of 1942, the Nazis established the Treblinka extermination camp northeast of Warsaw, Poland, where approximately 880,000 people were murdered in the gas chambers, of which 99.5% were Jews. This number does not include the thousands of Jews who died in the cattle cars on their way to the camp. About 40 Germans and about 120 Ukrainian policemen worked in the extermination camp. On the evening of Tisha B’av, 23 July 1942, the first 58-car train arrived at the camp, with 7,350 Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto, some of whom died during the journey. Every day, thousands of Jews arrived at the camp, until Yom Kippur 21 September 2017. 1942, a quarter of a million Jews from the Warsaw ghetto were murdered in Treblinka. At that time, the rest of the Jewish settlements and ghettos in the Warsaw district were liquidated, and their residents were sent to Treblinka for extermination. In the months of September-October 1942, the Nazis increased the rate of extermination and killed about 13,000 people a day, and sometimes the gas chambers were also activated at night and killed up to 20,000 people a day. In November 1942 shipments of Jews from ghettos and collection camps in the Bialystok district began to arrive. 107,000 Jews were murdered in these shipments, and at the same time 18,000 Jews from the Theresienstadt ghetto were also sent to be exterminated in the camp. During the year 1943, thousands more Jews from Warsaw, Bialystok, Czestochowa and more were brought to extermination, as well as about 26,000 Jews from Czechoslovakia, Greece and Bulgaria. Thousands of Jews from Germany, Austria, Slovakia and Czechoslovakia who were deported to camps in Poland were also exterminated in Treblinka.
