===Höfle Telegram=== A further source of information became available in 2001. The [[Höfle Telegram]] was an encrypted message sent to Berlin on 31 December 1942 by Operation Reinhard deputy commander [[Hermann Höfle]], detailing the number of Jews deported by DRB to each of the Operation Reinhard death camps up to that point. Discovered among declassified documents in Britain, it shows that by the official count of the German Transport Authority 713,555 Jews were sent to Treblinka in 1942.<ref name="HöfleTelegram">{{cite journal |last1=Witte |first1=Peter |last2=Tyas |first2=Stephen |date=Winter 2001 |title=A New Document on the Deportation and Murder of Jews during "Einsatz Reinhardt" 1942 |journal=Holocaust and Genocide Studies |publisher=Oxford University Press |volume=15 |issue=3 |pages=472 |doi=10.1093/hgs/15.3.468 |doi-access=free}}</ref> The number of murders was probably higher, according to the ''Armia Krajowa'' communiqués.{{efn|The ''[[Armia Krajowa]]'' communiqués were published by the [[Polish Underground State]] through the ''[[Biuletyn Informacyjny]]'' newspaper (BI) on behalf of the exiled [[Polish government-in-exile|Polish government in London]].
