President Trump lays wreath at Israel’s Holocaust memorial

President Donald Trump paid tribute at Israel’s Yad Vashem memorial to the 6 million Jews killed in the Nazi Holocaust.

The president and first lady Melania Trump together laid a wreath upon the ashes of Holocaust victims at the site’s Hall of Remembrance.

“Words can never describe the bottomless depths of that evil, or the scope of the anguish and destruction. It was history’s darkest hour,” said Trump in a short speech after the memorial ceremony.

Trump will travel to Rome later on Tuesday, May 23. He is on a nine-day trip that began in Saudi Arabia.
