Raoul Wallenberg

Raoul Wallenberg was a Swedish diplomat and humanitarian known for saving thousands of Jews during the Holocaust. In 1944, he issued protective passports and provided safe houses in Nazi-occupied Hungary, helping many escape deportation to concentration camps. His efforts earned him international recognition, and he became a symbol of courage and moral integrity. Despite his significant contributions, he disappeared in 1945 after being detained by Soviet authorities, and his fate remains uncertain. Wallenberg’s actions exemplify the impact of individual bravery in facing atrocity.
