== == Some (very few) were lucky enough to have German families hide them (such as Anne Frank's family) and others were blessed by surviving out of strength and character, while others were simply too weak to go on. Over 6 million Jews (including women and children as well as the elderly and also Gypsies, Europeans or anyone that went against Hitler) were gassed, beaten to death, starved to death or used for experimentation purposes and many died from that alone.

Those that survived the Holocaust were finally liberated from the camps by the allied forces, starting in mid 1944. By that time the Nazis had succeeded in destroying large amount of evidence implicating their role in the holocaust. However, the gruesome memory of the holocaust still remains fresh in people who survived this terrible ordeal.

The actual number of people cannot be accounted for in that case.
