Mass Escape Through Berlin Opens East German Gate
East Berlin became a gateway for refugees as lax border controls let about 80 000 East Berliners work in the West. They crossed into West Berlin by train, subway, or road and were flown to West Germany after reporting to refugee authorities. Fears of a Soviet peace treaty spurred daily escapes peaking at over 2 000 before mid August, exposing Communist claims of a better life as a lie and prompting a clampdown to close the hatch.
