US EditionPoland Honors Those Who Rescued Jews in WWII
- On March 24, Poland observes the National Day of Remembrance for Poles Who Rescued Jews Under German Occupation, commemorating acts of heroism during World War II.
- Established in 2018, the day pays tribute to Polish citizens who risked their lives, facing the death penalty for themselves and their families, to save Jewish neighbors from the Holocaust perpetrated by German occupiers.
- The tragic story of the Ulma family from Markowa, who were executed by German forces on March 24, 1944, for sheltering eight members of the Didner, Grünfeld, and Goldman families, serves as a symbol of the sacrifices made by Poles.
- During a ceremony unveiling a monument in Ciepielów honoring over 30 Poles, including children, killed for helping Jews, President Andrzej Duda quoted that these families took in people seeking help despite knowing "what would most likely await those who helped Jews if they were caught."
- While nearly 7,000 Poles are recognized by Israel's Yad Vashem Institute as Righteous Among the Nations, efforts continue, such as those by Lublin-based researchers and the publication of books like 'They Even Killed the Children,' to document and share the stories of both known and unknown heroes who demonstrated courage, compassion, and solidarity.
