The Canadian Armed Forces says it regrets a social media post published on International Holocaust Remembrance Day that did not include mention of Jewish people.

The post was published on the official X account of the Canadian Armed Forces (CAF) on Jan. 27, saying, “Today, on International Holocaust Remembrance Day we honour the victims that suffered and died at the hands of fascism for being members of marginalized groups.”
