A British MP has reunited a Ukrainian man with his wife and son who have been staying with him in his constituency home.

Anna Kolomiichuk and her son Sviatik, 7, have been living with Duncan Baker, Conservative MP for North Norfolk.

They both travelled with the MP to Lviv in Ukraine to deliver aid and were able to meet up with Vitali Kolomiichuk after seven months apart.

Mr Kolomiichuk had managed to rescue his son from Melitopol, where he had been staying with Anna's parents.

The south-eastern city was one of the first places in Ukraine to be invaded by Russian troops when the conflict began.

The mother and son arrived in Norfolk in April.

Mr Baker said it was "the most emotional, privileged trip I've ever been on".
