This issue of the Palestine Post went to press just hours before the Final Surrender of Germany was announced. According to one of the feature articles here, although Hitler's Chancellery had fallen to invading Russian troops, the Fuehrer’s whereabouts was not known. Much of the issue is devoted to the liberation of Prague by the Soviets. Page Three features a description of Buchenwald Concentration Camp by a French survivor.
