The Holocaust was a systematic, state-sponsored persecution and mass murder of approximately six million Jews by the Nazi regime during World War II. This genocide also targeted millions of other victims, including Roma, disabled individuals, homosexuals, political dissidents, and others deemed undesirable by the Nazis. The Holocaust represented one of the darkest periods in human history, marked by unimaginable suffering, cruelty, and inhumanity. Its legacy serves as a poignant reminder of the dangers of intolerance, hatred, and unchecked power.
