@liormars I had the privilege of hearing the testimony of Bert Bedihi, a Holocaust survivor from France, and I feel it is my moral duty to pass her story on to you as well.

I also want to say thank you to TikTok Israel for making this amazing tour near Vashem possible out of a genuine and shared desire to convey important and educational content on social media without any compensation.

"Yad Vashem works on a variety of fronts to make Holocaust memory accessible and to connect the younger generation to the issue," says Yad Vashem Chairman Danny Dayan. "Remembrance, in order to be meaningful, must be accompanied by action.

We see great value in using social platforms as a way to inspire the younger generation so that the image and stories of the murdered and those who survived are not forgotten."
