In 3–5 sentences, analyze how the Germans tried to hide the Holocaust from most of the world during the war.

During the Holocaust, the Germans utilized deceitful tactics to hide their crimes from the world. They created elaborate charades such as fake "model" concentration camps for international inspection, while the true death camps continued their horrific operations. They also implemented strict censorship and propaganda campaigns to control the flow of information and paint a false picture of the concentration camps as labor camps. Additionally, they enforced a policy of secrecy and denial, even within their own ranks, to prevent leaks of information about the atrocities being committed. These efforts were aimed at concealing the true extent of the Holocaust and misleading the international community about the genocide taking place.
