A conspiracy theorist from my country has retweeted a tweet from Stew Peters, an American conspiracy theorist and white supremacist, claiming that the photos from the Soviet liberation of Auschwitz were faked.

It comes from a Good Morning Britain interview from January 27, 2020 with Eva Schloss, a Holocaust survivor and the step-sister of Anne Frank. Here is the quote from the video about the photographs:

I couldn't find almost any discussion about this claim on the Internet (aside some r/conspiracy post and Neo-Nazis on X) so I'm posting it here.

The video in the tweet is of horrible quality, so I found the original source.External Quote:Anne Frank's step-sister admits that photos from Auschwitz are completely FAKE…on live television.

The claim bassicaly stands on "She's a Holocuast survivor so it must be true" which is funny because Holocaust deniers claim all Holocaust survivors lie.External Quote:Another thing I wanted to point out, there are many pictures about the Russians liberating Auschwitz and there's never any snow. The snow was honestly that high, I was at the Russian embassy once and I said "Something puzzles me, those photos are fake". 'They said, "Well yes, they are not fakes", but when the army came they didn't have cameras they didn't take photographs. Only much later they took pictures, you see now, but this is definitely not in Auschwitz and not the liberation of Auschwitz.
