The best evidence is the German military special ordering Zyclon-B with the odor agent removed. The manufacturer was deemed partially liable for the deaths based on the assumption that they should have known the gas was being used to kill people if it was ordered with the odor agent removed. One alternative theory offered is the odor was sticking to the clothes and making everyone uncomfortable.
The original fumigation chambers had warnings all over them. Those warnings were removed because they make it difficult to tell the story that camp residents were tricked into entering.
How these doors look today.
If there's chamber at the camp, it must have been built to be a death chamber!
Brits installed this sign at Bergen-Belsen....
.... but the typhus carrying lice outbreak was deemed so bad that they burned the camp down.

There are no firing squad photos involving camp residents. There is no known proof of murder at these camps. I'm not saying it never happened. Anytime you have military in charge of prisoners there will be some abuses. Probably moreso back in the 1940s compared to today, but certainly not enough to explain mass deaths.
