About Jan Karski
Jan Karski was a Polish soldier, resistance-fighter, and diplomat during World War II.

He reported about the state of Poland, its many competing resistance factions, and also about Germany's destruction of the Warsaw Ghetto and its operation of extermination camps on Polish soil that were murdering Jews, Poles, and others.
