It was horrific. Many hundreds of thousands of non-combatant men, women and children, were shot immediately by the Nazis' Einsatzgruppen. Throughout much of Europe, others were herded into ghettos and systematically transported, by force, to concentration camps, where they were killed upon arrival. Those who were not killed were put to forced hard labor with food-rations insufficient for survival; and most died within months, through starvation and other causes. The total death toll of European Jews in the Holocaust (1939-1945) was six million.
