This year鈥檚 Holocaust Memorial Day will mark the 80th anniversary of the liberation of Auschwitz-Birkenau, the Nazi concentration camp in Poland where an estimated 1.1 million men, women and children died between 1940 and 1945.

As part of Today鈥檚 coverage of this anniversary, Emma Barnett spoke to one Jewish survivor - 92-year-old Ivor Perl - who was just 12 years old when he was forced onto a cattle truck to Auschwitz.

He and his older brother survived, but the rest of his family were killed in the Holocaust.
