Life in Israel Comes to Halt as the Nation Remembers the Holocaust

When you click on the video, keep in mind that this is not a still shot.  It is a live-action video taken from the top of a building in Tel Aviv, Israel as a siren wailed for several minutes to mark Holocaust Remembrance Day

The siren goes off on April 15th each year in remembrance of the six million Jewish lives extinguished by the Nazis during World War Two.

When the Siren goes off, the entire nation comes to a standstill.

When the siren stops, motion returns and life continues for the Israelis as you can see at the 1:14 mark in the video.
