Summarize this article for a 10 year old
Prior to the deportation of individuals of Jewish background to the concentration camps there were at least 2,173 Jews in Norway. During the Nazi occupation of Norway 772[1] of these were arrested, detained, and/or deported, most of them sent to Auschwitz. 742 were murdered in the camps[clarify], 23 died as a result of extrajudicial execution, murder, and suicide during the war.[2] Between 28 and 34 of those deported survived[3] their continued imprisonment (following their deportation). The Norwegian police and German authorities kept records of these victims, and so, researchers were able to compile information about the deportees.[4][Note 1]
