Does anyone have the links to the Soviet accounts of liberating a concentration camp in WWII?

I remember it had first hand accounts of trying to speak to the recently liberated, frail, lithe prisoners unsuccessfully until a Jewish Soviet soldier tried Yiddish, and the horrors of the camp broke several soldiers who had witnessed the Eastern Front and galvanized the desire to destroy the fascists.

It was posted on Hexbear a while back but I can’t seem to find it now.
