Holocaust Remembrance Day 2013


Israel's President Shimon Peres and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu, dignitaries, diplomats and thousands of Holocaust survivors and their families gathered on the evening of April 7, 2013, in Yad Vashem's Warsaw Ghetto Square for the official ceremony for Holocaust Martyrs' and Heroes' Remembrance Day.


 This year's central theme was "Defiance and rebellion during the Holocaust – Marking 70 Years since the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising."

Commemorative ceremonies took place on the Mount Remembrance throughout the day, including the wreath-laying ceremony in Warsaw Ghetto Square and the recitation of Holocaust victims' names by members of their families and members of the public in the Hall of Remembrance.

 Later in the afternoon, members of Israeli Zionist youth groups gathered together for a special ceremony in the Valley of the Communities.
