Pilgrims on 50th year celebration pilgrimage at the Gaza wall visiting the bomb shelters, and the Path to Peace mosaic creation upon the border wall – that divides the Gaza Strip and Israel – adjacent to the homes of the settlement Netiv HaAsara, Friday Oct 6th, just hours before the attack Saturday morning Oct 7th 2023 by Hamas terrorists infiltrating Netiv HaAsara using paragliders, going from house to house, killing 15 people and injuring many more.
Today – Oct. 12, after days of waiting – the pilgrims are finally evacuated in Tel Aviv, getting a return flight safe back home.
Images from the Westerborkfilm have been used countless times in documentaries and films about the Second World War.
Here Westerborkfilm images – clips – screening semi-permanent ten years ago (Feb. 2013) in a museum introduction film (on holocaust, genocides, discrimination, diversity, rights) on one of the huge columns in the entrance hall of the Kazerne Dossin museum in Mechelen, Belgium (a few months after opening of the new Kazerne Dossin building). Note, shortly after this outbound deportation transport to Bergen-Belsen and Auschwitz, had left the Westerbork transit camp on May 19, 1944, the train paused at the nearby railway station of the dutch town Assen, where train cars were added from Belgian Transport XXV (25) with 508 deportees, Jews and the Roma deportee Stevo Caroli, from transit camp Kazerne Dossin (Dossin barracks) in Mechelen, and this combined transport with Jews, Sinti and Roma, including Settela Steinbach, continues to the east…to the Bergen-Belsen and Auschwitz concentration camps. Stevo Caroli survives Auschwitz-Birkenau. After returning to Belgium, Stevo Caroli’s request for a certificate, necessary for the compensation for political deportees or work refusers, is refused by the Belgian Aliens Police for racial reasons ( kazernedossin.memorial/biografie/stevo-karoli/ ).
