    ​Yesterday, Ambassador Mark Regev joined 1,200 mourners and fifty Holocaust survivors attending the burial of six unknown victims of the Holocaust. A burial which the Chief Rabbi described as "extraordinary".
     
    Chief Rabbi Ephraim Mirvis led the eulogy and addressed those who lost their lives directly.
     
    "We don't know who you are", he said. "We don't know your names. We don't know if you were male or female. We don't know which countries you came from.  We don't know what you did for a living. We don't have details of your families.
     
    But there is one thing that we do know; you were Jewish. And it is for that single reason that you were brutally murdered."
