Forced Labour Under the Arrow Cross Regime

After the Arrow Cross coup, mass killings of Jewish forced labourers escalated. Around 200 were executed at Pusztavám on 16 October, following earlier massacres by SS units. The regime “lent” Jewish men and women to German forces, driving labour battalions westward under lethal conditions, deepening genocidal persecution.
