A 96-year-old Holocaust survivor, who survived several concentration camps, was killed late last week in a Russian strike on the Ukrainian city of Kharkiv.

Borys Romanchenko was at home, in a multi-storey building, when it was hit by apparent Russian artillery. He had survived Buchenwald, Mittelbau-Dora and Bergen-Belsen concentration camps and forced labour at Peenemünde Army Research Center.

More than 500 people have been killed in Kharkiv since Russia launched its invasion of Ukraine on Feb. 24. Mike Armstrong reports on Romanchenko and the ongoing assault on Kharkiv.
