Stalin described the uprising as a "criminal adventure". The Poles appealed to the Western Allies for help.

The AK had between 12,000 and 20,000 armed soldiers, most with only small arms, against a well-armed German Army of 20,000 <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Schutzstaffel?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Schutzstaffel">SS</a> and regular Army units. Bór-Komorowski's hope that the AK could take and hold Warsaw for the return of the London government was never likely to be achieved. After 63 days of savage fighting the city was reduced to rubble, and the reprisals were savage. The SS and auxiliary units were particularly brutal.</p> <p>After Bór-Komorowski's surrender, the AK fighters were treated as prisoners-of-war by the Germans, much to the outrage of Stalin, but the civilian population were ruthlessly punished. Overall Polish casualties are estimated to be between 150,000 and 300,000 killed, 90,000 civilians were sent to labor camps in the <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Reich?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Reich">Reich</a>, while 60,000 were shipped to death and concentration camps such as <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Ravensbr%C3%BCck_concentration_camp?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" title="Ravensbrück concentration camp">Ravensbrück</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Auschwitz?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Auschwitz">Auschwitz</a>, <a href="https://en-m-wikipedia-org.translate.goog/wiki/Mauthausen-Gusen_concentration_camp?_x_tr_sl=auto&amp;_x_tr_tl=en&amp;_x_tr_hl=en-GB" class="mw-redirect" title="Mauthausen-Gusen concentration camp">Mauthausen</a> and others.
