How did Hitler kill the Jews?

While over six million Jews died at the hands of Adolf Hitler during the Holocaust, there was a wide variety of ways in which they perished. The most efficient method for eliminating the Jewish population was the 'final solution': relocation to death camps. The prisoners were generally sent to a room where poisonous gas was released, usually carbon monoxide or hydrogen cyanide. From the gas chamber, they were immediately sent to be cremated in a stunningly efficient manner.

In addition to the death camps, there were mobile killing units that would line up Jews and execute them by firing squad. Many Jews perished in labor or concentration camps by exhaustion, hunger, or disease. The relocation of Jewish people to ghettos also had a devastating effect as many perished from lack of food or supplies. Disease and famine were routine causes of death for Jewish people during the Holocaust.
