How were the jews killed by the nazis?
That was when plans were drawn up for centralized Extermination Camps, in which the Jews were herded into large chambers (800/1200 in Auschwitz) under the pretense of being disinfected or deloused – the Nazis even went so far as to hand out soap and towels to elicit cooperation to the last moment – just to be then poisoned by “Zykon-B” (HCn, Hydrogen Cyanide), in a process lasting up to 20 min. Afterward, depending on location and/or time frame, the bodies where either dumped in mass graves or cremated.
