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.
The Jews were sytematically killed during the years 1941-1945. Other undesireables (apart from Gypsies) were not systematically killed.
There was no single 'year of the Holocaust' ...
no doubt the first year of the Holocaust.
The United States Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC opened in that year.
About 1,571,428 Jews were killed a year during the holocaust. (6 million overal). ___ Any annual figure is notional, as most of the killings took place between about April 1942 and late in 1944.
Belzec extermination camp was in operation for only a short time - from March-December 1942. In those nine months the Nazis killed 434,508 Jews and an unknown number of gypsies there.
some are getting killed and some are havingbabies
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. (Although the telegramme was accurately decrypted, no one was able to work out at the time what it was about).

Auschwitz was liberated by the Soviet Red Army on January 27, 1945. The liberation marked the end of the Nazi regime's brutal concentration and extermination camp, where over a million people, primarily Jews, were killed during the Holocaust. The event is commemorated each year on International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
