Raoul Wallenburg resisted the Nazis by:

1. He housed Jews in houses with Swedish flags.

2. He delivered protected passports (SchutzPass).

3. He provided clothing and food to imprisoned Jews.

He was a Swedish diplomat a member of the prestigious and influential Wallenberg family. In the later stages of World War II, he worked tirelessly and took great risks to save thousands of Hungarian Jews from the Holocaust. He was arrested by the Soviets after the entry of the Red Army in Budapest, claiming he was an American spy. He died while still in his custody and his death is controversial until today.
