Warsaw Ghetto
Embedded Files
The Warsaw Ghetto was a confined area in Warsaw, Poland, established by the Nazis during World War II to segregate and isolate the Jewish population. Created in October 1940, it became the largest ghetto in Nazi-occupied Europe, housing around 400,000 Jews in horrific conditions. The ghetto faced severe overcrowding, food shortages, disease, and brutal treatment by Nazi authorities. In April 1943, as the Nazis attempted to deport the remaining inhabitants, Jewish resistance fighters staged an uprising, which was ultimately suppressed. The ghetto was destroyed, and most of its residents were killed or sent to extermination camps. The Warsaw Ghetto symbolizes the tragic fate of Jews during the Holocaust.
