Jews to Polish ghettos has been recognized by mainstream historians,
this does not apply to Dutch and French Jews: these Jews are
said to have been sent to Auschwitz and Sobibór as well as – to a
lesser extent – to Majdanek, but not to any ghettos.
In its following edition the American Jewish Yearbook speaks of the

to eye witness testimonies, the new arrivals at Sobibór were received
by an SS man who indicated that they would soon be continuing
their journey to Ukraine. 1074
In October 1942 Judisk Krönika reported: 1075

camps have been transported to Poland, where they are
