• Warsaw Ghetto Insurgency Begins (1943)
On January 18, 1943, the Germans began
their second deportation of Jews from the Warsaw Ghetto, which led to
the first instance of armed resistance. The deportation was halted
within a few days; only 5,000 Jews were removed instead of 8,000 as
planned. The Nazis retreated, only to return three months later, at
which time the Warsaw uprising started in earnest.
