About this listen

International Holocaust Remembrance Day, observed on January 27, commemorates the liberation of the Auschwitz concentration and extermination camp in 1945 and honors the memory of the more than six million Jewish men, women, and children murdered during the Holocaust, along with millions of other victims of Nazi persecution. Auschwitz has become a powerful symbol of the atrocities of World War II, where approximately 1.1 million people were killed before Soviet forces liberated the remaining survivors. Remembering the Holocaust reminds us of the importance of defending freedom, standing against hatred, and teaching future generations so that such horrors are never repeated.
