Heads of Lithuania's parliament will meet with members of the delegation on Monday.

On Thursday, the procession will march between the Paneriai railway station and the Paneriai memorial – part of the route covered by prisoners of the Vilnius ghetto to their deaths in Paneriai forest. The procession will take place on the same day as the Holocaust Day in Israel.

Held for the fourth time, the procession will involve former prisoners of the Vilnius ghetto and their descendants, members of the Lithuanian Jewish community, members of the Seimas and the government and foreign diplomats residing in Vilnius.

More than 90 percent of Lithuania's pre-war Jewish population were murdered during the Nazi occupation.
