Court Told 1 Revolt In Death Camp
A Warsaw Ghetto revolt survivor testified in the Adolf Eichmann trial about a 1944 Auschwitz uprising where inmates blew up a crematorium, killed SS men, and were later recaptured. Four Jewish girls who helped obtain explosives were hanged publicly, and Eichmann listened with apparent indifference as witnesses described Nazi mass murder of Polish Jews. The court admitted a Mufti document linking him to Eichmann amid defense objections.
