International Holocaust Remembrance Day, commemorated annually on January 27th, serves as a solemn occasion to remember the victims of the Holocaust, the systematic genocide perpetrated by the Nazi regime during World War II. The day is designated to honor the memory of the six million Jewish people and millions of others who were persecuted and murdered by the Nazis.
Established by the United Nations General Assembly in 2005, International Holocaust Remembrance Day holds immense significance. It reminds us of the horrors of the Holocaust, the importance of fighting against intolerance, and the need to promote human rights and dignity for all. The day also highlights the resilience of Holocaust survivors and the responsibility we have to learn from the past to prevent such atrocities from happening again.
