80 years ago there was an uprising in the Warsaw Ghetto. At the most overcrowded minute in the judaic territory there were about 450 1000 people. People starved, became sick, were murdered and exported to concentration camps or extermination camps. At the time of the uprising, about 60,000 people were present in the ghetto. It was the largest judaic armed revolt during planet War II. Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki took part in the celebration of the 80th anniversary of this event. The head of the government placed flowers under the plaque of the Memory of the Soldiers of the territory of the Warsaw-City Army and paid tribute to Polish heroes who helped Jews.
Memorising the Dead
Hitler's soldiers carried out executions and carried people out of the Warsaw ghetto to extermination camps. The uprising broke out on 19 April 1943. The judaic freedom was fought by militant organizations that were created in the Warsaw Ghetto. The fight against the Nazis lasted little than a period and ended in a tragic fall of the uprising. The Warsaw ghetto area was burned and leveled. Many thousands of Jews died, only a fistful survived.
Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki commemorated people who sacrificed their lives in the Warsaw Ghetto uprising.
“Let us pay tribute to the heroic fight of judaic insurgents, judaic boys and girls, who in a hopeless situation grabbed arms to actually choose the way of death,” said Prime Minister Mateusz Morawiecki.
