No, the Jews of Sighet did not protest the expulsion of the foreign-born Jews because they did not believe the rumors of deportation, and they were in denial about the danger they were facing. Additionally, they were under the impression that the foreign-born Jews were being taken to work camps instead of being targeted for extermination.
The year after Moishe the Beadle's return to Sighet, the townspeople largely dismiss his warnings about the impending danger posed by the Nazis. They are in denial, believing that such horrors could not happen to them. As a result, life in Sighet continues as usual, with the community remaining unaware of the impending atrocities that will soon befall them. This ignorance ultimately leads to their tragic fate as the Holocaust unfolds.
In "Night" by Elie Wiesel, Moishe the Beadle and the other foreign Jews in Sighet were initially deported by the Nazis to concentration camps. Moishe managed to escape and returned to Sighet to warn the community about the impending danger, but his warnings were largely ignored.

Elie's father did not request permits to move to Palestine because he was hesitant to leave behind everything they knew in Sighet, Romania.

Sighet prison was created in 1897.
Moshe the Beadle, a character in Night, returns to Sighet to warn the Jews of the impending danger and atrocities that lie ahead. However, his warnings are dismissed as unbelievable by the Jews in the community.
