11 August 1928 | Dutch Jewish girl Ariette Wilk was born in The Hague.
In December 1942 she was deported to #Auschwitz. After the selection she was murdered in a gas chamber.
He was "a handsome, smiling, and sociable boy who loved nature and the land". But this love was brutally cut off on the land he loved so much.
Tzur Saidi, 28, from Moshav Gan Hadarom, was murdered in the massacre at the Nova Festival, but he did not die alone. He died with his two best friends, with whom he had shared a close childhood friendship.
When the barrage of missiles began and the terrorists raided the compound, Tzur, Omri, and Aviad tried to escape in their car. It was a blood trap: a huge traffic jam on the way out, with gunfire approaching from all directions. The terrorists reached their car.
During the desperate escape, Omri and Aviad were seriously wounded by gunfire, but they continued to fight. They held out for about five hours, wounded, sending their last location and begging for rescue.
Five hours of hope that was shattered. After hours of terror and crushed prayers, the connection was severed. A family friend who arrived at the scene found all three lifeless, lying side by side next to the vehicle.
Tzur, who left behind heartbroken parents, a sister and a partner, was laid to rest in the cemetery in Gederot, and buried next to his two best friends.
Today, as we cry out the pain of youth cut short, we remember Tzur – whose smile and light were too great for this evil.
There is no comfort for the pain of a mother who sees her son buried next to his two friends, three young men, a symbol of friendship that even death could not conquer.
This photograph was taken just five days before his death.
Before Auschwitz reduced him to prisoner 26406, Aron Löwi was a husband, father, merchant and respected member of the Jewish community in Zator, Poland.
On 5 March 1942, he arrived at Auschwitz. His photograph was taken during registration.
Five days later, on 10 March 1942, Aron was dead.
The Nazis tried to turn human beings into numbers. But Aron was never a number. He had a family, a home, memories, dreams and a future that was stolen from him.
One photograph. Five final days. An entire life stolen.
