1. The operation on 25 April 1943, was terminated at 2200 hrs.
2. General effects of the execution of this operation.
The Poles resident in Warsaw are much impressed by the toughness of our
operations in the former Ghetto. As can be seen from the daily reports, the
general situation has greatly calmed down since the beginning of that operation
within the city area of Warsaw. From this fact one may conclude that the
bandits and saboteurs resided in the former Ghetto, and that now all of them
have been destroyed.
In this connection the fact may be of some interest, that an illegal ammunition
store was seen to explode when we burned down a certain building in the
dwelling area on which we were working at the time.
The SS and Police Fuehrer
in the District of Warsaw.

SS-Brigadefuehrer and Major general of Police.
