Some of the Jews were saved in different ways.1) German Sympathizers: A number of German Industrialists of which Oskar Schindler is the most famous, felt bad for the Jews, but could not express his sympathy for their plight without also being sent to the the Camps. He, like other sympathetic industrialists, made their factories exclusively based on Jewish labor and protected their workers quite vociferously from any harm.2) Civilian Sympathizers: Many individuals in occupied countries hid Jews in their homes. (Anne Frank is a good example of this). Many nameless and unknown Europeans risked their lives to protect other human beings in what little ways they could. In Denmark, it was source of national pride to protect the Jews by coordinating their flight to neutral Sweden.3) Foreign Diplomats: A few courageous foreign diplomats like Raoul Wallenberg issued fake papers to Jews guaranteeing them the ability to flee and live beyond the reach of the Nazi authorities who would want to kill them.4) Foreign Armies: When Britain, the USA, and the USSR began to liberate the Nazi-occupied territories, they encountered the Concentration Camps, Death Camps, and ghettos and proceeded to liberate the prisoners.
