Żagiew (Polish for torch) was an underground magazine published in the Warsaw Ghetto by assimilated Jews.
In the first half of 1942, five issues of the magazine under this title were published. The identities of those responsible for its publication remain unknown. The activity of Żagiew ceased in the summer of 1942 during the Grossaktion Warsaw. However, later that same year, a magazine once again appeared in the ghetto under the Żagiew banner. It published information about the situation on the fronts of World War II, as well as calls for both passive and active resistance against further deportations. The exact goals of the group behind the second phase of Żagiew are difficult to determine. Its editor-in-chief, Adam Szajn, was killed by the Jewish Combat Organization in February 1943.
