One of the symbols of the 80th anniversary of... the liberation of the German Nazi concentration and extermination camp Auschwitz will be a freight train car, which will be placed directly in front of the main gate of Auschwitz II-Birkenau camp. Since 2009, this train car has stood in the middle of the unloading ramp at the former Birkenau camp, at the site where SS doctors conducted selections of deported Jews, directing most of them to their deaths in the gas chambers. This train car originated from Germany. Between 1919-25, over 120,000 wagons of this type were manufactured. Many of them were used to deport people to Auschwitz, as confirmed by documents and archival photographs. The train car is dedicated to the memory of about 420,000 Jews from Hungary who were deported to Auschwitz from May to July 1944. Its conservation was made possible thanks to financial support from Frank Lowy, whose father, Hugo, was killed in the camp.show more

A friend tells me the #PakistanArmy quietly changed its... Quetta train movement protocol after the #JaffarExpress attack. Instead of boarding from the main station, 4–5 carriages are reportedly moved overnight to Quetta Cantonment, where army personnel on leave board in the morning. The carriages are then attached to the main train at Quetta Railway Station before departure. According to this account, attackers studied the pattern and planned the strike near “Chaman Phatak” before the train even reached the station. Seems the “intelligence agencies” were too busy making TikToks, managing social media trends, and running propaganda campaigns to notice their own movement plans had already leaked. #QuettaTrainAttack #Balochistanshow more
