US forces reached Buchenwald while organised prisoners took control as SS authority collapsed. Sinti and Roma had been confined in the camp and its forced-labour network. Liberation ended imprisonment for those still there, while evacuation marches and deaths elsewhere continued. The event belongs to a dispersed chronology of liberation rather than a single date of safety for all survivors.
