Nearly 2,000 participants from 25 different countries will take part Thursday in the traditional March of the Living at the former Nazi extermination camp Auschwitz-Birkenau in Poland.

Among the participants in the march are delegations from Israel, the United Arab Emirates, the United Kingdom, Belgium, Hungary, Austria, Germany, Holland, Lithuania, Poland, Greece, France, Canada, Ukraine, the United States, Argentina, Mexico and Uruguay.

Only eight Holocaust survivors will take part in the march, which takes place on the occasion of the Holocaust Remembrance Day celebrated on Thursday.
