Alicja Schnepf and Irena Senderska, the representatives of the Polish Association of the Righteous Among the Nations, pay tribute in front of the Monument to the Ghetto Heroes dedicated to the victims of the 1943 Warsaw Ghetto Uprising in Warsaw, on January 27, 2021, the International Holocaust Remembrance Day. - A year after the Nazis occupied Poland in September 1939, Germany created the Warsaw ghetto, a special district for Jews in the Polish capital. Some 480,000 people were crammed into the area and many perished from starvation and disease before 300,000 were sent to the gas chambers of the Treblinka death camp, 80 kilometres (50 miles) to the east. The Germans razed the ghetto after the failed 1943 uprising. (Photo by JANEK SKARZYNSKI / AFP)
