Opinion | The Nazi-Fighting Women of the Jewish Resistance – The New York Times

In 1943, Niuta Teitelbaum strolled into a Gestapo apartment on Chmielna Street in central Warsaw and faced three Nazis. A 24-year-old Jewish woman who had studied history at Warsaw University, Niuta was likely now dressed in her characteristic guise as a Polish farm girl with a kerchief tied around her braided blond hair.

She blushed, smiled meekly and then pulled out a gun and shot each one. Two were killed, one wounded. Niuta, however, wasn t satisfied. She found a physician s coat, entered the hospital where the injured man was being treated, and killed both the Nazi and the police officer who had been guarding him.
