In March 1942, Berkovich, at the age of 21, was transported to Auschwitz concentration camp along with 999 other young womenvs. "…in March 1942, when she was 21, Betka was transported with 999 other young women to the notorious Nazi Concentration Camp, Auschwitz";
She survived 1000 days there with her sister Katkavs. "She survived 1000 days there with her sister Katka" A thorough copyedit is recommended. Cited, no image, QPQ done. There also appears to be an issue with WP:Commonname as sources cited show surname is "Kohút" with the acute accent, and a google search confirms that "Kohut" is less common. In the lede "She was the final survivor of a group that managed to survive the camp" is repetitious and unclear. Perhaps better phrasing would be "Prior to her death in 2021, she was the last living seamstress of those who survived the camp" however, the lead is not supposed to contain information that is not cited in the body and there is no such claim in the article. It is however documented here and needs to be added with a citation, not only for clarity in the article but so that the hook fact can be confirmed. It is unclear from the text whether the subject "Berkovich" worked in the Upper Tailoring Studio, as she is mentioned no where in that section.
