“Tomorrow marks the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the German-Nazi concentration and death camp where more than 1.1 million people were murdered between 1940 and 1945, about 85% of whom were Jews. Other victims included Poles, Soviet prisoners of war, Roma and Sinti gypsies, and other ethnic groups. The date of the camp's liberation by the Soviet army on 27 January 1945 is observed annually as International Holocaust Remembrance Day. There were many other Nazi death camps built across German-occupied Poland during World War II such as Treblinka, Sobibor, Majdanek and Chelmno… A New York-based charity, the Counter Extremism Project, bought the house recently and will run the project.”
