AnswerThey were killed by starvation and gas chambers

They were not killed just by starvation and gas chambers, but over-work and shootings.

As well as tortured, terrible medical experiments and not treating diseases.

The Jewish prisoners were executed in many horrible and inhumane ways, they died of starvation in the Ghettos in the early years of the war or starved in the concentration camps. Their malnutrition and poor living spaces also were a breeding ground to diseases that were rampant in the camps and ghettos. Some of the prisoners never even made to the camps, they were often herded into remote fields shot and then buried in mass graves. The most common method was poison gas, or zyklon b. It was a rat poison that the Nazis would filter into a room filled with any prisoners. The prisoners were told they were going to take a bath, instead the Nazis would execute them and gather there clothes for re use.
