The 83rd anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising

On April 19, 1943, German forces entered the Warsaw Ghetto with the aim of liquidating it. On that day, the largest Jewish armed uprising of World War II broke out. The Jewish Combat Organization and the Jewish Military Union resisted the German forces entering the ghetto. Those who were captured were murdered on the spot or deported to extermination camps. In April and May, nearly 7,000 Jews captured during the suppression of the uprising were transported to Treblinka II Extermination Camp. The uprising lasted until mid-May 1943.

On the 83rd anniversary of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising, the management and staff of the Treblinka Museum. The German Nazi Extermination Camp and the Labour Camp (1941–1944) commemorated its participants. At the site of the Extermination Camp, by the stone dedicated to the Martyrs of the Warsaw Ghetto, daffodils—the symbol of the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising—were laid.
