Germans Destroy the Ghetto-May 16,1943
Dear Diary,
For days our people have become more and more worried of all of the destruction that could happen in this ghetto in the next days. The Germans are showing no sign of any mercy and are attacking our forces with thousands, we have few amounts of soldiers left and it will be hard if not impossible for us to win this now. No one talks of this everyone says that the resistance will be successful and that the Jewish forces will soon be victorious but it is clear in there faces the look of sadness and of fear. Later that evening... Today marked the end, the synagogue was burned and the destruction of the buildings has begun. The deportations look too be the ends because this time they are taking every single person in the ghetto to extermination or concentration camps. The Jews are using the same tactics of not going outside for nothing too not be seen by anybody, my brother and I are one of those in hiding. General Stroop the leader of this operation here in Warsaw has gotten furious and is telling every single one of his soldiers to burn down every single building to force everyone out of hiding. The people who did go outside where taken to forced labor or extermination camps. I was one of the luck less than 11,000 of the original 400,000 people to escape the Warsaw Ghetto in this last attack by the Nazis. Us few survivors are living the in the outskirts of Warsaw hoping to survive.
