(NEWS) Righteous Gentiles Honored In Warsaw

"Some 50 Righteous Gentiles, non-Jews who risked their lives to rescue Jews in Poland during the Holocaust, were honored in Warsaw.

The luncheon Sunday in Warsaw was 'one of the largest-ever gatherings of Holocaust rescuers and one of the last of its kind, as many of these rescuers are elderly,' a spokesperson for the Jewish Foundation for the Righteous, which hosted the event, told JTA.

Poland's chief rabbi, Michael Schudrich, and the Israeli and U.S. ambassadors to Poland also attended."
