Mass deportations target Budapest middle class families
Reports from mid May describe the mass evacuation of elderly and middle class families from Budapest to farm territories in northeastern Hungary. Up to about 20,000 people, mainly pensioners, civil servants, ex-officers, widows, and former professionals, are said to be relocated by security police to Szolnok and Jazepati near the Slovak frontier. Families were told four to six hours to pack and could take 50 to 100 kilograms of baggage per person. barges often arrive late. The operation is linked to housing shortages and a shift to farm labor, with the news noting similarities to wartime evacuations. The Netherlands is briefly named as Konintherijk Nederlanden.
