Auschwitz - The Allied response to Auschwitz

Throughout the camp’s history, there were numerous escape attempts, and on April 10, 1944, two Slovak Jews Rudolph Vrba and Alfred Wetzler successfully broke out of Auschwitz-Birkenau. After a harrowing two-week journey through Nazi-occupied Poland, they made it back to their home country. There they made contact with Slovak resistance forces and gave them a complete report on the extermination camp. Vrba and Wetzler documented the killing process and provided detailed maps of the camp’s layout. This information was passed on to Western intelligence organizations along with an urgent request to bomb Auschwitz. Part of the report was forwarded to the U.S.
