Death Camps

 
 

Out of the six main death camps of approximately six million European Jews where murdered during the Holocaust. The names of the six main Death  

 camps where Auschwitz, Treblinka, Chelmno, Sobibor, Belzek. and Majdanek. Every signal one of these camps used some sort of gas to kill there  prisoners. There where also hundreds of smaller labor camps. In the camp Auschwitz they used a gas called Zyklon-B. In Chelmno they used gas vans. In Sobibor they used carbon monoxide out of vehicles. In  Belzek they used carbon monoxide just like Sobibor. in Majdanek they used Zyklon-B. In Treblinka they used carbon monoxide. 
 

In Auschwitz over 1 million 100 thousand to 2 and a half million died there by a gas known as Zyklon-B. But not every body was killed by gas some where shot, burned, and cremated. Also the number of dead was so great that they had special furnaces made so that they can constantly cremated day and night. They would either buried or spread the ashes over the yard of the death camps. There where three camps  at Auschwitz. the first one was mainly for attendance centers and the second one was used for exterminating and eliminated. The third one was a manufacturing for synthetic and fuel and rubber product.

 

In Treblinka 700 thousand prisoners died from carbon monoxide poison produced by decal engines pumped threw a hose that was connected to ceiling pipes that goes  to the bath hose and threw a camouflaged to a shower head. August 1943 a rebellion happened killing several guards and officers. Most of the 700 thousand where European Jews.

 

In Chelmno 152 thousand to 320 thousand prisoners died by being forced into the back of the gas vans and locked in the back while carbon monoxide was being pumped in threw a hole in the top of the top of the van. it would take ten to fifteen minutes to kill all who was in the van. in 1942 the soviet troops arrived at the camp but it was to late. the guards of the camp had already  wiped out all the prisoners.

 

In Sobibor 167 to 250 thousand prisoners died by carbon monoxide. October 1943,  300 Jewish inmates rose a rebellion and killing several guards and super visors. 7 inmates where killed and some escaped. The ones who where left at the camp where shot the next day.  The mass extermination equipment was destroyed and the field was planted with seeds so trees can grow.

 

In Belzek 434,500 to 600 thousand prisoners died at this camp carbon monoxide. Prisoners started arriving may 1940.  Extermination began in late 1942. In early 1943 the dead corpse of the prisoners where being found forcing the camp to close.

 

The last camp was Majdanek and 78 to 380 thousand died by carbon monoxide but later they had  zyklon-B installed. New prisoners where going threw a solution process. Those able to work where immediately assigned to work detail. Those that could not work where immediately sent to the gas chamber to be killed. April 1944 it was immediately evacuated before the soviet union was able to take it over.

 

Threw World War two about three point five million Jews where killed for no reason except that they where Jews. Hitler wanted living space and  world domination. Those are the reasons why Hitler started the Death Camps. Hitler used World War Two as a cover up for his and the worlds greatest crime ever seen or known  in history.......................................................
