Vigil held at Auschwitz ‘death wall’, 80 years on

Survivors from Auschwitz have begun commemorations on the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the Nazi concentration camp in Poland.

People walked up to the ‘death wall’ and left candles to pay their respects outside Block 11 in Auschwitz, where thousands of prisoners were executed by SS officers.

Polish President Andrzej Duda also gave a speech marking the first part of a day of tributes.
