Commemoration of the liberation of Auschwitz extermination camp by Soviet troops 50 years ago
POLAND: Auschwitz:
General view of liberation commemoration ceremony in grounds of Auschwitz concentration camp, scene of Jewish Holocaust of World War II (World War Two / Second War War). Rows of lit candles on railway tracks leading to Nazi death camps placed by survivors. Shattered ruins of gas chambers with candles lit on it. Close view of survivors and relatives crying, Jewish men with skull caps on in tears. Rabbi at microphone singing prayer of remembrance. People in crowd one flying Israeli flag. Elie Wiesel (Nobel laureate and Auschwitz survivor) speaking - It is true that not all the victims were Jews, but all the Jews were victims. Close your eyes and look and you will see what we have seen: endless nocturnal processions are converging here at night and here it is always night. Children stood behind barbed wire fence in camp. People walking at ceremony including Lech Walesa (Polish President), Elie Wiesel, Simone Veil (French social minister and Auschwitz survivor) stood at gate of Auschwitz camp. Polish soldiers ceremonially laying wreaths. Lord Jakobovits (Former Chief Rabbi, UK representative at commemoration ceremony) lays British wreath. Camp building and trees at night.
