Yaroslava Levitska, the last remaining Righteous Among the Nations in Israel, passed away the day before yesterday (Tuesday). The Haifa Municipality calls on the public to attend her funeral today (Thursday) at 15:00 at the Tel Regev cemetery, in the Darkhei Shalom section, in the Haifa area. Levitska began her rescue activities as a six-year-old girl in the town of Złoczów, smuggling food, clothing, and medicine into the local ghetto. Her family, including her mother Katarzyna and grandfather Aleksander Levitski, built an underground hiding bunker where they hid and fed 25 Jewish survivors throughout the war.
