Soldiers in uniforms are standing among piles of personal belongings scattered on the ground. Trucks and train wagons are visible in the background, with several individuals entering onto trucks.
8 December 1941 | The first group of Jews was deported & murdered in mobile gas chambers in Kulmhof (CheΕmno). The first German Nazi extermination camp began its operation. At least 152,000 people were murdered there.
