A boy raises his hands over his head as Nazi soldiers forcibly remove Polish Jews in the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising to be transported by train to Majdanek extermination camp or Treblinka. One of the most iconic photographs of WWII, the image, most likely from April or May 1943, was included in the Stoop Report given to Heinrich Himmler by SS and Police Leader Jürgen Stroop.
