# One of the last remaining survivors of the Auschwitz-Birkenau concentration camp, the 100-year-old Lily Ebert, has died in London. She was 20 years old when she was deported from her hometown in Hungary to the concentration camp. Her great-grandson Dov Forman said Ebert’s mother, younger sister and brother were killed in the gas chambers but she vowed to tell her story. Forman wrote a bestselling book with his great-grandmother, titled Lily’s Promise. She was recognised with an MBE for her services to Holocaust education in January 2023.
