The citizens of Austria-Hungary (roughly 3,000) were then forcibly drafted into the Austro-Hungarian Army or the Polnische Wehrmacht, demoted to privates and sent to Italian Front, while people born in other parts of occupied Poland were interned in prisoner of war camps in Szczypiorno and Beniaminów.
Approximately 15,000 of them were confined in internment camps in Beniaminów and Szczypiorno, while almost 3,000 were drafted to the Austro-Hungarian Army.
