Following the assassination of Ernst von Rath there was co-ordinated violence by the SA (Stormtroopers) against Jews, synagogues and Jewish owned property throughout Germany in the Night of the Broken Glass (Kristallnacht). About 400 Jews were killed and in the following few days about 30,000 Jews were sent to concentration camps. Every synagogue in Germany was vandalized and many Jewish businesses and homes were wrecked. In some parts of Germany the violence continued for 2-4 days.

There was a scramble to leave Germany.
