Wikipedia gives an estimate of 280,000-380,000. See: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/History_of_the_Jews_in_Romania#The_Holocaust Note that during World War 2 Romania's border were different from those before and after the war. It did not include much of Transylvania, which had been transferred to Hungary, but did include modern Moldova and a small part of the Ukraine. Romania had a reputation for vicious antisemitism and the country carried out its own national Holocaust.
The table in the link below gives a figure of 300,000. In the interwar period Romania had a reputation for rabid antisemitism, and it is not surprising that the country carried out its own holocaust instead of handing Jews over to the Nazis. There were horrific massacres in Bucharest, where Jews were murdered in the streets and in slaughterhouses, and in Iasi (Jassy). Many Romanian Jews were deported to camps in Transnistria. (See link below).
The last count, in 2001, numbered 8542 Jews in Romania.
Today, no more than 6 000.
--------------------------------------------------
After the census from 20 October 2011: 3 271 Jews; but it is probable that 1000-2000 not declared the correct ethnicity.
The majority of Romanian Jews today are over the age of 70. About 1,000 are under the age of 25. Three thousand Jews live in Bucharest, and small Jewish communities exist in the principal towns of the Moldavia district: Iaşi (Jassy), Bacău, Suceava and Rădăuti. In the Transylvania district, there are Jews in Cluj, Arad, Timişoara, Satu Mare, Tîrgu Mureş and Oradea, as well as in Constanţa on the Black Sea coast. The total number of Jews in Romania is probably around 5,000 in 2012.
Despite the dwindling number of Jews, synagogues and a religious infrastructure are maintained in many localities. The number of operating synagogues in the provinces is in decline. There are kosher cafeterias in some 10 cities. Virtually all Jewish children receive at least the rudiments of a Jewish education in the communities' Talmud Torah schools. There are three Rabbis in Romania.
Note:
One on-line resource lists the 1930 Jewish population of Romania as 757,000 .
Even if that figure were 100% inflated, it would mean that the country's
Jewish population had decreased by 98.7 percent in the space of 82 years.
The picture is similar throughout eastern Europe.
On Romanian territory (without Northern Transylvania under Hungarian jurisdiction during the World War II and also without the Ukrainian territories) - ca. 5 000.
Approx. 10 000 - in the territory controlled by the Romanians.
Over millions died.
Out of the approximately 500,000 Jews living in the then Romanian territories, about 250,000 died either in massacres, pogroms, or deportation.
Approx. 10 000.
Approx. 1 000.
65,000 Jews were killed.
most of the Jews within Romania's pre-war borders survived, but this was arguably at the expense of the Jews within the territories that Romania gained during the war.
6,000,000 Jews were killed during the holocaust.
6 millions jews were killed
Hitler killed Jews, Nazis killed them, there were torture devices, and concentration camps. Many more things too.
