Auschwitz is the symbol of Nazi madness and barbarity. In quantity and quality, Auschwitz was the concentration camp where the inventory of crimes, horrors, and death reached apocalyptic proportions. Rudolf H\u00f6ss himself, who was the camp&#8217;s commander, admitted to the murder of hundreds of thousands of deportees. Exactly how many is still impossible to say. The most recent studies agree in placing the number of victims\u2014the vast majority Jews of all ages and backgrounds\u2014between 1,300,000 and 1.5 million. Certainly, the massacre continued apace until the final days, and only ceased with the closure of the camp.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The vanguard of the 62nd Corps of the Russian Army on the Ukrainian Front entered&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"footnotes":""},"categories":[37],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-624455","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-fq-en"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v26.0 -
