The Kovno ghetto in Lithuania held 29,000 people, crowded together in a small area with no running water, suffering from hunger, cold and the constant fear of deportation. On October 29, 1941, the German Nazis staged "The Great Action": in one single day, they selected, shot and killed 9,200 individuals, 4,273 of which were children. This was to be the largest mass murder of Lithuanian Jews in history. Never again. #WeRemember | World Jewish Congress

In 1944, as the Nazis intensified their campaign of annihilation, the Kovno Ghetto in Lithuania was emptied, and its inhabitants were sent on the final stage of their tragic journey. On August 15, 1944, a transport of 1,000 Jewish prisoners was dispatched from the ghetto to the infamous Dachau concentration camp. For those aboard, the brutality of forced labor, hunger, and fear had already worn them down, but now they faced an even darker fate: the promise of nothing but suffering and death. Amo

In 1944 they stood in silence in the ruins of the Kovno Ghetto waiting for the end with nothing but a prayer whispered under their breath. They were defenseless and alone. October 7th reminded us that the world has not changed but we have. We will never stand in those lines again. We are no longer victims waiting for mercy. Today our prayers are backed by the steel of the IDF. From the river to the sea we are the masters of our fate. Never again is now. 🇮🇱💪Illustrative video, AI
