In the twilight hours of the Third Reich, April 1945, as liberation forces approached the Bergen-Belsen concentration camp, the Nazi machine made one final, desperate attempt to erase its crimes. Three freight trains were packed with 2,500 Jewish prisoners bound for death camps eastward, many from the camp's "Exchange" section where Jews deemed valuable for potential prisoner swaps had worn their own clothes and received marginally better treatment. As defeat loomed, even these once-"privileged" prisoners became targets in the Nazis' frantic campaign to "liquidate" camps and eliminate survivors before the world could witness the horrific evidence of genocide, part of their systematic effort to conceal the scale and brutality of their atrocities. After a six-day journey, the train pictured here stopped suddenly 81 years ago today near the German village of Farsleben where artillery fire between the Allied forces and Germans could be heard all around. With American troops advancing, the train's SS guards fled during the night. One survivor, Aliza Vitis-Shomron, recalled the moment when American troops arrived: "People burst out of the carriages. Suddenly someone shouted: ‘The Americans are coming!’ To our great surprise, a tank came slowly down the hill opposite, followed by another one. I ran toward the tank, laughing hysterically. It stopped. I embraced the wheels, kissed the iron plates. We had won the war.” Major Clarence L. Benjamin was in a jeep leading the small task force of two light tanks that first encountered the train filled Jews from Hungary, Holland, Poland, Greece and Slovakia, many of them sick and starving. It was Major Benjamin who took this now famous photograph of a mother and her young daughter moments after liberation. The woman pictured was later identified as being a 35-year-old Jewish woman from the Hungarian town of Makó and her 5-year-old daughter, who was 77 as of 2017 but did not wish to be named publicly. It has been called ‘one of the most powerful photographs of the 20th century.' © A Mighty Girl #drthehistories

His name was Mikael Janicki. He was a 39-year-old Polish man living in Sweden. He was cycling with his 12-year-old son to the swimming pool. In a pedestrian underpass, they were surrounded and verbally harassed by a group of immigrants. Mikael turned back to confront them and protect his son. One of them, named Mohammed Khalid Mohammed Mohammed, pulled out a gun and shot him twice in the head at close range, right in front of his boy. Mikael died shortly after. The shooter, a repeat offender with prior convictions including attempted murder, was sentenced to 14 years in prison in March 2025. Four others from the group were convicted of helping the killer escape and covering up evidence. Since they were minors, they received youth care, probation with community service, and youth supervision and spent not a single day in prison.

Sky news Australia reporting the most factual account of Keir Starmer that i've ever heard. "Village Idiot" Weak and Hopeless" when he says 'we' he must be referring to himself and the Iranian Regime 🤣🤣

BREAKING: Israeli security officers caught at least 40 Palestinians who tried to invade Israel, probably to try and murder Jews, while hiding in a garbage truck. Thank God they were caught.

The only thing she is an expert on is helping male rapists have safe passage to female prisons…. Glasgow is being decimated whilst supporting economic migrants who claim to be refugees. After 27 years of public speaking you would think she would have mastered the autocue a bit better than this…😂 x.com/safepassageint…

🕯️Real people. Real lives. Tortured, enslaved, abused, experimented on, then gassed and buried in unmarked mass graves. May we never forget what unbridled evil looks like. May antisemitism soon be nothing but a bad memory. #HolocaustMemorialDay #EndJewHatred

I watch this video every Yom HaShoah Remembrance Day. And I cry each time, because it revives my hope in humanity! This is Nicholas Winton, who rescued 669 (mostly Jewish) children from Czechoslovakia during the Holocaust & brought them to Britain in the Kindertransport.

Bizarre to see the Times attacking Restore Britain for our policy of forcing the NHS to hire qualified British medical professionals over foreign nationals. Right now, there are countless British medics who cannot get a job in the NHS. Instead, we ship in foreigners who can’t speak English and are unable to properly do the job. Those roles should be going to the trained British men and women. A Restore Britain Government would work to have an NHS overwhelmingly staffed with qualified Brits.

Remember, whilst Keir Starmer was smearing huge swathes of the public as “far right,” using 24/7 courts and locking people up for quickly deleted posts. He knew about Axel Rudakubana having ricin and an Isis manual. Gaslighting on another level and it won’t be forgotten, ever.

We're making some huge progress with George Clooney. His skin will take another couple of weeks to heal but look at his body language now. He's out walking and everything.

Sometimes I don’t need to work very hard. This woman did my job for me….brilliantly. Let’s just say she won’t be in Keir Starmers Christmas card list. She must have scripted this or at least bullet pointed it but it’s an absolutely biblical roasting of him and everything he has done, a must listen. Well done that lady 👏👏👏🤣🤣🤣

Whenever you think of your life and when it gets bad at times then think about this poor little boy whose abuse as a baby has lead to untold damage to his body. How much pain should one child have to endure in his young life? He’s such a brave young lad but it’s so sad that his adoptive mother having given him so much care and support is now fighting terminal cancer. It’s a real human tragedy for all 💔 dailymail.co.uk/lifestyle/arti…
