CZECHIA LIGHTS UP CANDLES: HOLOCAUST REMEMBRANCE

THANKS TO ALL OF YOU, WE LIT UP THE WHOLE COUNTRY AGAIN🕯💔

Just like last year, from north to south and east to west, all regions of the Czech Republic lit up with the light of the candles you lit with us on January 27 to commemorate the memory of the victims of the Holocaust.

Because some things must not be forgotten.

We were deeply touched by the people of the Czech Republic remembering and honoring the memory of the victims of the Holocaust.
Thank you that together we do not forget the horrors of the past and the names of the people they destroyed.
Thank you, friends.
🇮🇱❤🇨🇿
