My son's last words to me: 'I will come to you when they stop fighting'
Anna Yakhno's four-year-old son - Sasha - died with his grandmother, when they tried to escape from a Russian-occupied area of northern Ukraine in March. The small boat they'd boarded to cross the Dnieper river capsized. Sasha’s grandmother, Zoya, was found dead the next day; Sasha’s body was eventually found twenty six days later. One year on from Russia’s invasion, Anna shares her memories of him with Newshour's James Coomarasamy.
