The article previously stated that Szlama Ber Winer died in the Bełżec gas chambers. However, no source is provided for that statement. I changed that to the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising and sourced that to Martin Gilbert's book on the Holocaust. 108.52.36.109 (talk) 12:34, 29 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Next time, please read the whole article before you comment. The new Gilbert reference is not available online and therefore cannot be confirmed. Meanwhile, according to postcard of his own nephew, Abram Bajler, Szlama Ber Winer left with family on the Holocaust train to Belzec. The information is coming straight from the horse's mouth.
