states and were then sent on to Stutthof 1052 when these regions were
about to be abandoned by the German army. For that reason we do not
have to consider Hungary in this respect.
Table 13 indicates the number of Jews sent to Auschwitz from countries
other than Hungary as the well as the percentage claimed to have
been “gassed without registration” (or moved further east in our opinion):
1053
Hence, about 354,000 Jews were moved east from Auschwitz,
among them some 149,000 Poles and some 205,000 persons from countries
other than Poland.
10.2.4. Balance
We can now draw our conclusions regarding the number of Jews deported
into the eastern areas:
� Deported via the Aktion Reinhardt camps: ~1,429,000
� Deported via Che�mno: ~145,300
� Deported via Auschwitz: ~354,000
� Deported directly w/o any stop-over in a camp: ~66,200
Total: ~1,994,500
� of which Polish Jews:
(1,288,200 + 134,300 + 149,000 =) ~1,571,500
� of which non-Polish Jews:
(140,800 + 11,000 + 205,000 + 66,200 =) ~423,000
Obviously, one has to deduct from these figures the deportees who
died on the way to or at the transit camps. In the case of Sobibór we estimated
their number to have amounted to about 10,000 persons, i.e.
deportees who either died along the way or were killed in the camps in
euthanasia operations – a practice which we believe to be probable although
it is not documented. 1054 As the conditions at Be��ec and Treblinka
hardly differed from those at Sobibór and in view of the far greater
number of people involved, the number of persons who died in these
two camps or on the way there must have been much higher than in the
case of Sobibór.
