The last survivor of the Treblinka Nazi death camp, where hundreds of thousands of people were systematically murdered, has died in Israel at the age of 93.

Samuel Willenberg, whose two sisters were killed at Treblinka, escaped the camp in 1943 during a mass attempted break-out.

Only 67 people are known to have survived the camp in occupied Poland; a camp where 875,000 people were killed by the Nazis.

He described in an interview how he was shot in the leg as he climbed over bodies piled at the barbed wire fence and catapulted over. He kept running, ignoring dead friends in his path.

He said his blue eyes and "non-Jewish" look allowed him to survive in the countryside before arriving in Warsaw and joining the Polish underground.

After the war Samuel Willenberg moved to Israel. He has a daughter, and grandchildren.
