The 12th annual March of Life, which last year attracted 10,000 people, comes amid strained relations between Hungary's 120,000-strong Jewish community and the right-wing government of Prime Minister Viktor Orban. A programme of events organised by the government to mark the 70th anniversary has been boycotted by Hungary's largest Jewish organization and EJC affiliate, Mazsihisz.
