Israeli Ambassador to Kosovo: Anti - Semitism and hatred have not stopped after 80 years

Today will be commemorated the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the German Nazi concentration camp and extermination of Auschwitz.

Israel's ambassador to Kosovo, Tammy Ziv, said that in co-operation with the German Embassy in Kosovo, a memorial ceremony will be held today to mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration camp and extermination, Auschwitz.

The Israeli diplomat cited a case from Mitrovica, where a 95-year-old person had helped rescue Jews during World War II.

“in the Mitrovica area, lives a 95-year-old man who was among those who hid Jews in his home or family homes. I hope to see her very soon, her” said.

Ziv, has invited all Kosovars who have information on people who have saved Jews to contact the embassy.

Israel's ambassador to Kosovo, Tammi Ziv, also spoke to anti-Semitics, with whom she said hatred has not stopped after 80 years. It's more important that antisemitism, such hatred has not stopped until 80 years ago, is experienced to this day. It is very important to explain the link between hate speech and passive to it”, the Israeli diplomat said.

Today, on the note of this day, the book Macedonian Sun, which deals with the confession of an 8-year-old girl who has fled from the camp in northern Macedonia and has been sheltered in Kosovo, will be presented in Kosovo.

In her interview, the ambassador also spoke of the book Macedonian Sun, written by Ephrat Baruch Altaraz. This book has recently been translated into Albanian and will be presented today during the memorial ceremony.

The author of the book, Ephrat Baruch Altaraz, said the book in Albanian is important to recognise and assess the role of Albanians and Kosovars in saving Jews during World War II. She said the book Macedonian Sun, deals with the confession of an 8-year-old girl who has fled from the camp in northern Macedonia and has fled to Kosovo.
