ACORDING TO SOME TCHORKIV WAS ONE OF THE BIGGEST, SADIGUR TOO. TODAY THEY HAVE NOTHING. GER BEFORE THE WAR WAS 100,000 CHASSIDIM AOORDING TO THE IMREI EMES, SFTER THE WAR THEY NUMBERED NOT MORE THAN 250 PEOPLE WORLDWIDE, TODAY THEY ARE OVER 60,000 INCLUDING ALL AGES (INCULDING THE 1500-2000 PEOPLE FROM REB SHAULS KEHILLA, ALL AGES). IT IS ESTIMATED THAT ALEXANDER ALSO REACHED TO THAT NUMBERS BEFORE WORLD WAR 2, RADOMSK WAS ALSO COMPLETELY WIPED OUT. DONT FOREGET OUT OF 6 MILLION YIDEEN KILLED, 3 MILLION WERE POLISH, AND OUT OF 3.3 MILLION YIDDEN IN POLAND 3 MILLION WERE KILLED, INCLUDING THE 100,000 GERER CHASSIDIM, 100 THOUSAND ALEXANDER, AND THE SAME FOR RADOMSK. ONLY LESS THAN 10% OF POLISH JEWRY SURVIVED WHOM ONLY A SMALL PERCENT REMAINED FRUM YIDDEN
