Nazi Manhunt

After WWII, as atrocities were uncovered, many Nazis fled to South America seeking refuge. The Allies, including Britain, France, the U.S., and Russia, established the Nuremberg Trials in August 1945 to prosecute Nazi officials. They faced charges of war crimes, but key figures like Rudolf Höss, Adolf Eichmann, and Josef Mengele had already escaped. These fugitives, responsible for some of the worst crimes of the regime, became the focus of a global manhunt.
