Yom Hashoah has been observed in Israel since 1951. This year commemorates the Jewish uprising against German SS troops in the Warsaw Ghetto, which began on April 19, 1943.
The desperate battle against the numerically superior Germans ended about four weeks later. Only a few Warsaw Jews survived the oppression by German troops. On Wednesday, German President Frank-Walter Steinmeier will deliver a speech at the central memorial ceremony in Warsaw.
It is estimated that the German National Socialists and their accomplices murdered some six million Jews during the Nazi regime (1933 to 1945). According to official figures, there are still 147,199 Holocaust survivors living in Israel.
