FRANCE 24 English published this video item, entitled “The green ticket roundup: France marks 80 years since its first mass arrest of Jews” – below is their description.
It was a small green-coloured ticket, signed by the police commissioner. The summons instructed recipients to present themselves at 7am along with an ID card and accompanied by a relative at six different addresses in Paris. Little did they know that they had been handed a ticket to Auschwitz. On Friday, France marks the 80-year-anniversary of its first mass arrest of Jews, also known as “the green ticket roundup”.
