Testimony of Marcus Z., 23 years old compositor from Warsaw. He left Warsaw with some of his young friends and was caught in a refugee camp in Mińsk Mazowiecki, where he describes thousands of refugees living in difficult conditions. He returned to Warsaw where he heard German artillery, and severe bombardment that resulted in fires that killed many and spread for several days due to lack of water. Protocol No. 86 is an extract from a volume of protocols /statements provided by a group of Polish-Jewish refugee writers and journalists who fled to Vilnius, Lithuania. In 1939 they formed a committee to collect evidence on the condition of the Jews in Poland under Nazi occupation.
