Germany plans to pay Holocaust survivors more than $660 million in aid.

Those payments are earmarked for nearly a quarter million survivors around the world. They’ll be made over the next two years.

Germany acknowledges Holocaust survivors are all elderly now. And because they were deprived nutrition during formative years, they’re more burdened today by medical issues.
