Horrifying Nazi-Era Diaries of Himmler Found in Russia
Heinrich Himmler, the architect of the Holocaust, killed himself by breaking open a hidden cyanide capsule in his mouth after being arrested by British forces in May 1945, days after the Germans had surrendered. Directly responsible for the extermination of up to 14 million civilians—including six million Jews—Himmler was a top lieutenant of Adolf Hitler for over 15 years.
But it was only recently that his wartime diaries were discovered, in an archive outside of Moscow, revealing horrifying new details about Himmler's daily life,according to documents uncovered by the German tabloid Bild.
