Yes, the majority of victims in the Holocaust were killed in gas chambers, although other methods of execution, including shooting and other forms of brutality, were also employed by the Nazi regime.

The genocide perpetrated during the Holocaust was a carefully planned and exceedingly brutal campaign of persecution and death aimed at specific groups of people, primarily Jews, but also members of the Romani community, LGBTQ+ individuals, people with disabilities, and other targeted groups.

While starvation and the spread of disease did contribute to some deaths during the Holocaust, these conditions were largely a result of the inhumane living conditions in concentration and extermination camps, rather than due to the naval blockade or other wartime strategies.

It is essential to remember that the Holocaust remains one of the darkest chapters in human history, and its memory is a solemn reminder of the importance of upholding basic human rights and the pursuit of justice and equality for all.
