Ukrainian army choir sings 'Eli Eli' on International Holocaust Memorial Day
The video shows an all-male group of Ukrainian soldiers singing in harmony in Hebrew while standing in front of the Babyn Yar site.
"We know and remember that indifference kills along with hatred," the Ukrainian leader said. "Indifference and hatred are always capable of creating evil together only."
In 1941, over 33,000 Jews and tens of thousands of Ukrainians, Roma, Soviets and the physically and mentally disabled were executed by the Nazis at the site.
"Indifference and hatred are always capable of creating evil together only."
Volodymyr Zelensky
The song the choir sang
The song the soldiers sang, "Eli Eli" was originally a poem written by Hannah Szenes in 1942 titled "A Walk to Caesarea."
The song is also one of the most commonly-played songs during International Holocaust Remembrance Day.
