Members of all Jewish parties participated in the armed resistance against the Gestapo in the “Jewish concentration camps” of Trawhild and Poniatow, in occupied Poland, it was learned here today from a report received from the Jewish underground movement.

Attached to the report is a list of 233 names of fallen leaders of the revolt in the Warsaw ghetto. They include prominent Zionists and active members of the Jewish Socialist Bund. The report also lists the names of Zionist and Bund leaders who lost their lives during battles in Trewniki and Poniatow.
