Friday Auschwitz-Birkenau survivors and other mourners commemorated the 78th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi German death camp.

6 million European Jews were killed in the Holocaust and millions more were killed in the global war that lasted from 1939 to 1945.

Only 185 miles from the Ukraine border, one of the survivors said that the war has created a “feeling of horror” in her.

 

 

 

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy marked the event, alluding to his own country’s situation.

“We know and remember that indifference kills along with hatred,” he said in a social media post.

“Indifference and hatred are always capable of creating evil together only. That is why it is so important that everyone who values life should show determination when it comes to saving those whom hatred seeks to destroy.”

Never Again.
