WATCH NOW: CBCNews.ca is livestreaming the commemoration ceremony marking the 70th anniversary of the liberation of the Auschwitz-Birkenau death camps by Soviet troops. Tuesdays gathering in southern Poland marks perhaps the last major anniversary that survivors of the Nazi German camp will be able to attend in numbers, given the youngest are now in their 70s. Some 1,500 attended the 60th anniversary. Around 1.5 million people, mainly European Jews, were gassed, shot, hanged and burned at the camp in southern Poland during the Second World War, before the Red Army entered its gates in winter 1945.
