What is Yom HaShoah?


Yom HaShoah, or Holocaust Remembrance Day, is a solemn occasion dedicated to honoring the six million Jews who perished during the Holocaust, as well as the resilience and heroism of survivors and those who resisted oppression. Observed annually on the 27th day of Nisan in the Hebrew calendar, Yom HaShoah serves as a poignant reminder of the atrocities committed and underscores the importance of remembrance and education to prevent such tragedies in the future.
