Answer
Mass deportations of Hungary's Jews to Auschwitz were halted in July 1944 due to several factors, including international pressure from the Allies and the Vatican, as well as the realization by some Hungarian officials of the genocidal nature of the deportations. The cessation of deportations marked a significant turning point in the Holocaust in Hungary and provided a brief respite for the country's remaining Jewish population.
