Best Answer

About 3 million Polish Jews were murdered, mostly in Poland (especially at Trebkinka, Chelmno, Majdanek, Belzec, Sobibor and Auschwitz). About half of Polish Jews died due to starvation, disease and mass shooting by the Germans.

However, the total number of Jews killed in occupied Poland was higher as Jews were deported to Auschwitz and other extermination camps from countries far away from Poland. In particular, Jews from France, Greece, Hungary, Belgium, the Netherlands and Germany were killed at Auschwitz. This raises the overall total to over 4 million killed in occupied Poland. The Germans turned Poland into the Nazis biggest killing field.
