On January 27th, the world pauses to remember the millions of people who were killed by the Nazis during World War II.
It is a time to reflect on the atrocities that took place during this dark time in history, and honor those who survived. The day is also an opportunity to educate future generations about what happened during World War II.
Holocaust Remembrance Day is a day of remembrance for the millions of Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust. It also serves as a reminder to all people of good will to combat prejudice, racism, and intolerance.
The Holocaust, or Shoah in Hebrew, refers to the systematic persecution and annihilation of European Jewry by Nazi Germany and its collaborators between 1933 and 1945.
On January 27, 1945, Soviet troops liberated Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp where more than 1 million Jews were murdered. International Holocaust Remembrance Day marks this date every year.
