In the concentration camps the Nazis took the little Jewish, Gypsy and Polish children and threw them up into the air and shot them as target practice. There were camps called: Auschwitz, Buna, Birkenau. The sick people were not given any food to eat or water to drink because they were close to death and the Nazis believed that even if they gave them food, they would still die. Hope That Helps!:)

What was Auschwitz concentration camp how may Jews died in it?

Auschwitz was an network of concentration camps and sub camps. Auschwitz had 3 main camps and 51 sub camps. Auschwitz is located known today as Oswiecim in Poland. Auschwitz concentration camp is known in history for many things and they are; Millions of people died in them, Auschwitz Birkenau was an death factory, how it was ran and what else apart from the killings happened in it.Auschwitz was established after the Nazi occupation of Poland in 1939. At first Auschwitz was an military barrack for the Polish Cavalry unit but it was turn into an concentration camp. Once Auschwitz was established, killings didn't began straight away. At first Auschwitz was an Labour camp which in the early years, the main inmates were Soviet POW's and Poles. All of this changed in 1941 after the Wansee Conference and the idea of the Final Solution came to place. Once the Final Solution was ordered, that is when the mass killings began.When the mass killings began, millions of Jews, Poles and POW's were deported to Auschwitz. it's known that 5 Million people were deported to Auschwitz withing the years of 1940-1945. when people were deported to Auschwitz, from 1941 onwards, prisoners had to be part of the "Selection Process." This means that an processes taken place and to see who were fit enough to work and who were to be sent to the gas chambers. This how it worked;1. Prisoners deported from cattle wagons.2. Prisoners sent to area where the Selection Process would take place.3. SS ordered everyone in the middle area (between 10,000-248,000 prisoners did this)3. People who were fit to work was sent to the SS Officer's Right hand side. (Who was ordering the selection Process ) This was mainly men and kids about the ages of 15.4. People who weren't fit to work was sent to the SS Officer's left hand side, where they would be gassed immediately. This mainly included Woman, Children and the elderly.5. After the process; The left side people were sent to gas chambers and the right side were sent to work.NOTE: Jews were always sent to Gas Chambers despite if they were or weren't fit to Work.The number of death toll of Jews in Auschwitz has been an Major issue to historians for nearly 70 Years. Their has been an range of 1.1 Million - 2 Millions of Jews died in Auschwitz. However, the numbers have fallen in. After many Testimonies from the SS Functionaries and Prisoners in Auschwitz, the ruff official death toll of Jews at Auschwitz is 1,765,000. This is proved from various documents the allies got and from the testimonies given from the years February 1945- November 1991.
