British Prime Minister Keir Starmer has visited the site of Nazi extermination camp of Auschwitz. After the visit Friday he voiced his “sheer horror” at what he saw and vowed that he would fight the growing antisemitism which is causing fears to rise among Jews even in Britain.

LONDON (Reuters) - British Prime Minister Keir Starmer visited the Auschwitz Nazi death camp in Poland on Friday ahead of the 80th anniversary of the liberation of the site which is seen as a symbol of the horrors of the Holocaust.

Sir Keir, who is in Poland for defence and security talks, said "nothing" could have prepared him for the horror of what he had seen.

Sir Keir Starmer has called his visit to Auschwitz "utterly harrowing" and said he was determined to fight the "poison of antisemitism".

British PM says he saw 'sheer horror' at concentration camp which saw industrial-level killing as a 'collective endeavor by thousands of ordinary people'

Keir Starmer said nothing could have prepared him for the 'sheer horror' of the Nazi death camp and the visit had strengthened his determination to stamp out the 'poison' of anti-Semitism

The Prime Minister visited the former Nazi concentration camp as he travelled to Poland to meet with the country’s political leaders.

Starmer visited the site in southern Poland — an area under German occupation during World War II — after a visit to Ukraine on Thursday. He was also scheduled to meet with President Andrzej Duda and Prime Minister Donald Tusk in Warsaw,
