Holocaust survivors from mental health hospitals were brought to the Western Wall (Kotel) in Jerusalem on Thursday to hold a belated bar mitzvah ceremony.

IDF soldiers were present at the ceremony, and saluted the survivors in an emotional sign of respect.

Pictures from the moving event, with the faces of the survivors blurred to protect their privacy, can be seen here:
