Hungarian authorities ordered Hungarian Jews living outside Budapest (roughly 500,000) to concentrate in certain cities, usually regional government seats.
There urban areas in which the Jews were forced to concentrate were enclosed and referred to as ghettos. -
The Hungarian authorities, in coordination with the German Security Police, began to systematically deport the Hungarian Jews. The Hungarian Police carried out the roundups and force the Jews onto the deportation trains. Most were deported to Auschwitz. Thousands were also sent to the border with Austria to be used for digging fortification trenches.
