William, Kate, Starmer Attend Holocaust Memorial Events in London

Prince William and Princess Kate will commemorate Holocaust Memorial Day in London, marking the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau. The ceremony, attended by Prime Minister Sir Keir Starmer and faith leaders, will include readings and candle lighting as a tribute to those lost in the Holocaust and subsequent genocides. Meanwhile, King Charles III is making history by becoming the first British monarch to visit Auschwitz for the anniversary, joining world leaders and survivors in Poland. This year's observance is particularly significant as many survivors are now in advanced years, with some reflecting on their traumatic experiences. The Holocaust Memorial Day Trust has encouraged the public to participate in remembrance by lighting candles at home. Both the Prince and Princess of Wales have previously engaged in Holocaust remembrance activities, emphasizing the importance of education and memory in combating hatred.
