World gathers to remember Auschwitz

World leaders were on Thursday to stand side-by-side with about 1 000 survivors of the Auschwitz death camp for an emotional ceremony under a blanket of snow to mark the camp’s liberation 60 years ago. Ten thousand people were expected to pay tribute to the at least 1,1-million people who died at Auschwitz.
