Zamość, region (and town) in the General Government area of Poland (see Poland, 2(b)) where the Nazis' largest single so-called pacification programme was started in November 1942 after they had decided that it should become a German region. Some 150,000 Poles from nearly 300 villages were either deported as forced labour, sent to concentration camps, or distributed elsewhere in Poland. They included 30,000 children, most of whom disappeared, though it is known that 4,454 of the more Aryan-looking ones became part of the Lebensborn programme. The Polish inhabitants were replaced by settlers from Germany and the Ukraine, but the SS lacked the manpower to deport everyone—400 villages were untouched—and when those who remained began attacking the new settlers the operation was abandoned.
