Auschwitz survivor and fighter against fascism Esther Bejarano has died
Hundreds of thousands are mourning the death of Jewish Auschwitz survivor Esther Bejarano, who died on Saturday night at the age of 96. She was deported to the Auschwitz-Birkenau extermination camp in 1943 at the age of 18 and only survived the Nazis’ machinery of murder because she was accepted into the Auschwitz girls’ orchestra as an accordion player.
The courageous contemporary witness with small alert eyes and a haunting voice had made it her life’s work to break the silence about the crimes of the Nazis and to fight against the return of fascism and war.
