Question

In the book, Resistance, what did the Allies say on the radio that shocked Chaya?

(a) That they would not be sending any help to the Warsaw Ghetto
(b) That the Red Army was retreating
(c) That the war was over and Germany had won
(d) All of the above

Answer 1

In the book 'Resistance,' the radio announcement that shocked Chaya was that the Allies would not be sending any help to the Warsaw Ghetto. Hence the correct option is (a).

Step-by-step explanation:

In the book Resistance, what shocked Chaya on the radio was (a) That they would not be sending any help to the Warsaw Ghetto. This piece of information would have been particularly harrowing for her and the other ghetto residents, as they were engaged in fierce battles and uprisings, such as the heroic yet ultimately doomed Warsaw ghetto uprising in 1943, against the dark backdrop of the Holocaust and Nazi oppression.

With the Allies focusing on other fronts and the overwhelming might of the Nazi forces, the message on the radio confirmed the isolation and desperation felt by the Jewish resistance within the ghetto.
