Yom HaShoah, also known as Holocaust Remembrance Day, is Israel's official day of commemorating the six million Jews murdered in the Holocaust and the Jewish resistance during that period. It is usually observed on the 27th day of the Hebrew month of Nissan. The day is marked by ceremonies, services, air raid sirens in Israel during which people silently reflect, and special prayers.
