During an event commemorating the 85th anniversary of Kristallnacht, King Charles met with Kindertransport refugees and Jewish leaders.

The Kindertransport was a rescue effort undertaken between 1938 and 1940 to bring refugee children to the United Kingdom.

King Charles was greeted at The Central Synagogue by The Chief Rabbi, Sir Ephraim Mirvis. He was then introduced to a group of Jewish refugees who escaped via the Kindertransport.

The King previously attended a reception to mark the 80th anniversary of the Kindertransport in 2018, when he was still Prince of Wales.
