... The last 1,200 ghetto children were evacuated from Bialystok in the final days of August 1943. Under the supervision of Gestapo officers, physicians and women volunteers, these children were transported in closed railroad cars to Theresienstadt in Czechoslovakia, where they were isolated in separate barracks. None of the other inmates of the camp were allowed to come in contact with them, on penalty of death.
