The Genocide of the gypsies, also known as the Porajmos, though perpetrated in the same place, by the same people as the Holocaust was different in concept.

The murders were mainly in 1944, but started as early as 1939. The issue was that there were many different tribes/types of gypsy and were subject to different treatment. For example non-German wandering gypsies were considered a national security risk as they were suspected of passing on military information, so were subject to arrest and imprisonment.

How did the Jews die in Belzec?

Belzec only operated for less than a year and more than 500,000 died there. --- As a result of the Hoefle (wirelees) telgramme (intercepted by the Allies) the exact number of Jews reported killed at Belzec is known. The SS's own figure is 434,508 Jews. In addition, an unknown number of Roma (gypsies) were also killed. The telegramme was sent after the camp had ceased to operate, so the figure can be regarded as defintive.
