The Slovak government selected Sept. 9 as a day of remembrance for victims of the Holocaust. The occasion will mark the day in 1941 when the then-Nazi puppet state introduced its infamous repressive “Jewish Code.” About 70,000 Slovak Jews perished in Nazi concentration camps during World War II.
The Archive of the Jewish Telegraphic Agency includes articles published from 1923 to 2008. Archive stories reflect the journalistic standards and practices of the time they were published.
