‘Fearless’ consular officials who saved thousands of Jews from Nazis honoured

“Fearless” British consular officials who helped save the lives of thousands of Jews from near-certain death in Nazi Germany and Austria have been honoured with a commemorative plaque.

The plaque, mounted on the wall of the British Embassy in Berlin by the Association of Jewish Refugees (AJR), is to be unveiled by dignitaries today in an event live-streamed to AJR members.
