Delegation including Muslims to visit Auschwitz

A delegation of envoys - including many from Muslim countries - plans to visit the former Nazi extermination camp at Auschwitz on Tuesday in a trip billed as the first of its kind.

With UN backing, the trip has been organized by The Aladdin Project - a group formed in 2009 to raise awareness about the Holocaust and counter racism, Islamophobia and intolerance. (AP)
