“I have a video of the two of us at his birth. In the morgue, my wife also took one of Arthur and me on his deathbed. That may sound strange, but I’m glad I still have it.” Artem Mherian (40) is speaking. He fled the war in Ukraine with his family four years ago. On Tuesday morning, his son Arthur died when his school bus was struck by a train at a level crossing. “We fled to get our children to safety. And then… (silence) Everything is destroyed.”
