King Charles hospitalized for scheduled prostate surgery; Queen becomes patron

King Charles and Queen Camilla marked Holocaust Memorial Day by lighting candles.

In a meaningful gesture to mark Holocaust Memorial Day, King Charles and Queen Camilla shared a special photo as the King underwent prostate surgery. The British royal family's social media pages posted an image of the King and Queen lighting candles at Sandringham House earlier in the week to commemorate the lives lost during the Holocaust. This day is dedicated to remembering the six million Jewish people who were murdered, alongside the millions of others who suffered under Nazi persecution and in subsequent genocides.

Holocaust Memorial Day falls on January 27, the anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the largest Nazi death camp, in 1945. This solemn occasion serves as a reminder of the horrors of the Holocaust and the importance of building a society free from anti-Semitism, persecution, and hatred.
