CIA searched for Hitler in South America for 10 years after his suicide

CIA documents reveal that agents searched for Adolf Hitler in South America for ten years after his reported death. In 1945, as Soviet troops entered Berlin, Hitler and Eva Braun committed suicide. Their remains were later identified by the Soviets. Despite the autopsy confirming his death, conspiracy theories emerged about his survival.

The CIA received reports suggesting possible hideouts in Argentina, including a hotel linked to Hitler's supporters. A claim from 1955 indicated he might have lived in Colombia under an alias. Argentina plans to declassify files revealing the escape of Nazis, as an estimated 10,000 criminals evaded prosecution by fleeing to South America.
