The Kaunas Jewish Community hosted a concert last Sunday to remember the victims of January 13, 1991, when Soviet troops stormed the Vilnius television tower, killing and wounding civilians holding vigil there. The list of victims include Titas Masiulis whose family rescued Jews from the Holocaust.

Kaunas Jewish Community chairman Gercas Žakas thanked the musicians and the Israeli embassy for making possible the arrival of saxophonist Amit Friedman, who will go on to tour Lithuania with a series of concerts to be announced.
