Jewish resistance organizations began an armed uprising when German forces entered the Warsaw Ghetto to deport its remaining residents. They resisted for nearly a month despite overwhelming German firepower. The uprising represented organized Jewish resistance under genocidal conditions, alongside the efforts of people who hid, smuggled food, documented crimes, and struggled to survive.
