Subject week: “Holocaust: 80 years ago, the Soviet Red Army liberated the Auschwitz concentration camp in Southern Poland”

Holocaust remembrance days are an international commemoration of the millions of victims of Nazi Germany’s genocidal policies. The commemoration, observed on different days in different countries, often marks the victims’ efforts at resistance and concentrates on contemporary efforts to battle hatred and anti-Semitism.
