In Tel Aviv, Israel, Adolf Eichmann, the Nazi SS officer who
organized Adolf Hitler’s “final solution of the Jewish question,
” is condemned to death by an Israeli war crimes tribunal.
He claimed he was just following orders, but the judges
disagreed, finding him guilty on all counts on December
15 and sentencing him to die.
On May 31, 1962, he was hanged near Tel Aviv. His body
was cremated and his ashes thrown into the sea.
