Yom Hashoah is an annual observance in Israel and the Jewish diaspora that commemorates the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust. A simple explanation:
1/ Yom Hashoah, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day, is a solemn day of remembrance for the six million Jews who were murdered during the Holocaust.
2/ This day is observed on the 27th day of the Hebrew month of Nisan, which falls in April or May. It was established by the Israeli Knesset in 1951.
3/ On Yom Hashoah, sirens sound throughout Israel, and the entire country comes to a standstill for two minutes of silence to honor the victims.
4/ Many Jewish communities around the world also observe Yom Hashoah, holding memorial services and lighting candles in memory of the victims.
5/ The Holocaust was a genocide perpetrated by Nazi Germany during World War II. Six million Jews, as well as millions of other individuals, including Roma, disabled people, LGBTQ+ individuals, and political dissidents, were systematically murdered.
6/ Yom Hashoah serves as a reminder that we must always fight against hatred, bigotry, and discrimination, and stand up for the dignity and rights of all people.
8/ By remembering the victims of the Holocaust and honoring their memory, we can help ensure that they are never forgotten and that their legacy lives on for generations to come.
