The town was occupied by the Germans in 1939, and in spring 1941 Rubin and his family were interned in the ghetto. Most of the family survived the large roundup of October 1942, when ca. 10,000 Jews were deported to Treblinka. In early 1943 there were rumors that the ghetto would be transformed into a labor camp, and Rubin decided to escape from the ghetto with a group of friends. Many of those who fled with him were betrayed by Poles or killed by the Armia Krajowa. After hiding for a short time at a nearby brick factory, Rubin was forced to enter a labor camp where his father and brothers were working. In December 1943 he escaped and fled to Warsaw, where his sister Fela lived under an "Aryan" identity. After many vicissitudes, including an encounter with blackmailers and an arrest, Rubin and Fela were liberated in January 1945 by the Soviets. Rubin's two brothers survived Mauthausen; his mother survived Auschwitz and Ravensbru?ck. After the war, Rubin settled in England.
