Original Note:
Misleading. Allies knew about the ongoing genocides in Germany & Poland, & also about Auschwitz. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Auschwitz_bombing_debate Some of that knowledge indeed came from decoded intercepts https://discovery.nationalarchives.gov.uk/details/r/C993766?uri=C993766-daily-proforma-returns-contained-in-gpcc-series-details&descriptiontype=Full https://media.defense.gov/2021/Jun/29/2002751689/-1/-1/0/SIGINT_AND_THE_HOLOCAUST.PDF The Allies issued a declaration in Dec 1942 about the Holocaust, based on all the info they had at the time https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Joint_Declaration_by_Members_of_the_United_Nations
