The main event is the national wreath-laying ceremony at Yad Vashem, following the two-minute siren at 10:00 (Israel Hayom, Maariv, n12, Kipa, walla). Holocaust survivor Aryeh Reiter, who lit a memorial torch at Yad Vashem yesterday, shared his life story, calling Israel's existence "a miracle" (INN, Kan). Several sources highlight the "March of the Living" in Poland, where Holocaust survivors are walking alongside family members at Auschwitz, expressing a sense of victory (Ynet, now14, 13tv). Religious perspectives on Holocaust remembrance are also examined, with discussion of how the ultra-Orthodox community approaches Holocaust memory (kikar).
