Zelensky saying that it is a "terrifying symbol" of what can happen when the world _"lacks the determination to stand up against evil."_
The #BabynYar tragedy was a mass murder of nearly 34,000 #Jews by #Nazi forces over two days in September 1941, near Kyiv, as part of the #Holocaust.
Estimates put the total #death toll, which also includes #Soviet prisoners of war and the #Romani people, at over 100,000.
