The Holocaust in Bulgaria
Template:Unreviewed The Rescue of Bulgarian Jews was a historical event that consisted of the planned rescue of about 50,000 jews living on Bulgarian soil in the period 1943-1945. The most notable people behind the rescue were Dimitar Peshev and Patriarch Stephen of Bulgaria, who both managed to overcome Bulgaria's pro- Nazi bureaucracy and convince the then- tsar Boris III to stand behind Bulgarian jewry.
