Yad Vashem: The Auschwitz Bombing Controversy in Context

Curated by ACT

Yad Vashem has the largest collection of Holocaust resources than anywhere else in the world. Their main objective is preserving all the stories of this time period so it is not forgotten or repeated. In addition to primary sources, they have compiled a series of video lectures by Holocaust historians. In this video, Dr. David Silberklang discusses a request made by two escapees from Auschwitz in 1944 asking the Allies to bomb rail lines leading to Auschwitz and bomb the crematorium. [17:00]
