Mir Yeshiva was the only Lithuanian yeshiva to survive the war in its entirety. Recent studies have emphasized the role of the rescuers - particularly the Japanese consul Sugihara Chiune who issued visas to the Jews. The Mir testimonies shed new light on the experiences of the Jewish refugees in Lithuania (1936-1940) and East Asia (1941-1945)
