Description

Traffic came to a halt in Tel Aviv on Tuesday, as sirens sounded, calling people to observe a moment of silence for those murdered during the Holocaust, despite the restrictions imposed amid the coronavirus pandemic. Footage shows cars pulling over on the highway and motorists standing still in observance of the #HolocaustRemembranceDay, as the siren lasted for two minutes.
