The Kamenets-Podolsk and Delvidek Massacres: Prelude to the Holocaust in Hungary

Until the occupation on Hungary by the Germans in March 1944, the Jews, although severely discriminated against, were not deported and the country proved a haven for one million Jews. Yet, two anti-Jewish mass actions did take place, these being the massacre at Kamenets Podolsk in Galicia in August 1941, where 23,000 people including 15,000 Jews were killed, and the mass murders in Delvidek, Yugoslavia, in January 1942, claiming 3,300 victims, of whom 700 were Jews. Following the occupation of Hungary, the German invaders soon implemented their Final Solution policy, deporting and slaughtering hundreds of thousands of Hungarian Jews.
