Nazi concentration camps

Nazi concentration camps were facilities established by Nazi Germany during World War II to imprison, exploit, and systematically persecute millions of people, primarily Jews, alongside Romani people, political opponents, disabled individuals, and others. These camps involved forced labor, inhumane treatment, and mass executions, serving as tools for ethnic cleansing and genocide. They symbolized the brutality of the Holocaust, reflecting extreme violations of human rights, where countless victims endured suffering and death under oppressive, militarized conditions.
