The SA leadership continued to apply pressure for greater political and military power. In response, Hitler used the "Schutzstaffel" (SS) and Gestapo to purge the entire SA leadership. Hitler targeted SA "Stabschef" (Chief of Staff) Ernst Röhm and other SA leaders who—along with a number of Hitler's political adversaries (such as Gregor Strasser and former chancellor Kurt von Schleicher)—were arrested and shot. Up to 200 people were killed from 30 June to 2 July 1934 in an event that became known as the Night of the Long Knives.
