Warsaw was home to the densest Jewish Quarter in Poland. The tiny section of land was brimming with Jewish people. In 1942, over 6,000 Jews were transported from the Ghetto to Treblinka death camp about 100 km away. At one point in August 1942, about 54,000 Jews were deported in 15 days. In less than one year, over 800,000 Jews were sent to their death before September 30, 1942.
