Netflix has said it will amend a documentary series that showed maps of Nazi concentration camps after a complaint by Poland’s prime minister.
Mateusz Morawiecki said The Devil Next Door series had maps with death camps within modern-day Poland’s borders.
The maps implied Poland was responsible for the death camps, when in fact it was occupied by Nazi Germany in World War Two, he said.

Netflix said it would change the maps “to avoid any misunderstanding”.
The Polish government has welcomed the decision by the online streaming service.
Germany invaded Poland in 1939, which marked the beginning of the war.
The Germans built concentration and death camps in occupied Poland, with the largest at Auschwitz-Birkenau, where 1.1 million people were murdered, most of them Jews.
A spokesman for Netflix told the BBC that additional text would be added to the maps shown in The Devil Next Door to reflect dis historical context.
