Most of the victims were children.

Ładoś 2.0 or Polish Sugihara? During the #Holocaust, the Polish Consul General @PLinIstanbul created a system which helped thousands of Jews to pass freely through Turkey, reach the Middle East and escape the Nazis. A story by @eldadbeck today in @IsraelHayomHeb . #THREAD 1/6
80 years ago have passed since the Germans closed the gates of the Warsaw Ghetto. Today Minister @WKolarski lit memorial candles on behalf of President @AndrzejDuda to honor these victims in front of one of one of the last fragments of the ghetto wall still standing.
80 years ago today, during a round up in Warsaw, the Germans arrested over 2,000men. Among them was Captain Pilecki. He let himself be caught so he could be sent to KL Auschwitz in order to gather information about the camp & organise the resistance.
Hero!
