Yom HaShoah, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day, solemnly commemorates the six million Jewish victims of the Holocaust.
It serves as a day of reflection and mourning for the atrocities committed during World War II.
Through ceremonies, vigils, and educational initiatives, Yom HaShoah honors the memory of those who perished and emphasizes the importance of never forgetting the lessons of history.
This is what it looks like when an entire country pauses for two minutes to remember six million Jewish men, women and children who were murdered in the Holocaust.
May their memory be a blessing. #NeverForget pic.twitter.com/ASNS8e0mzA
