Sachsenhausen Concentration Camp Liberation 70th Anniversary

ORANIENBURG, GERMANY - APRIL 19: Petr Mischtschuk, who is from Ukraine and as a 14-year-old was imprisoned by the Nazis at the Buchenwald and later Sachsenhausen concentration camps during World War II, arrives at the infamous 'Arbeit Macht Frei' ('Work Makes Free') inscription at the original entrance gate during ceremonies marking the 70th anniversary of the liberation of Sachsenhausen at the former Sachsenhausen concentration camp near Berlin on April 19, 2015 in Oranienburg, Germany. The Nazis ran Sachsenhausen from 1936-1945, using it initially for political prisoners, then later also for resistance fighters from across Europe, Soviet prisoners of war, Jews, homosexuals, Jehova's Witnesses and other victims. The camp included a gas chamber, execution pit and ovens for burning bodies, and an estimated 30,000 inmates died. Soviet and Polish forces liberated the camp on April 22, 1945.
