The world's oldest man - the only member of his immediate family to survive the Holocaust - has died at the age of 113.
Israeli media reported that Polish-born Yisrael Kristal has died on yesterday, a month before he was due to turn 114.
Kristal, who lived in Haifa, Israel, hit the headlines last year after deciding to celebrate his bar mitzvah a century late.
The original celebration had not taken place because World War One broke out.
Kristal was born in the village of Zarnow, about 90 miles south-west of Warsaw, in 1903.
His mother, father, two children and wife were murdered during Nazi prosecution in Poland and during World War One, yet he survived.
