Holocaust martyrs

Holocaust martyrs are individuals who suffered and lost their lives during the Holocaust—a genocide during World War II where Nazi Germany systematically persecuted and murdered six million Jews, along with millions of others. The term honors those who endured extreme brutality and sacrifice, often resisting oppression or maintaining their dignity amid unimaginable violence. Their sacrifices serve as a powerful reminder of the consequences of hatred and intolerance, emphasizing the importance of remembering history to promote human rights, justice, and compassion.
