They fled Ukraine and died in Germany – DER SPIEGEL 03/2024
Fled from the war in Ukraine, brutally murdered in Germany. The two Ukrainian basketball players Volodomyr Yermakov (17) and Artem Kozachenko (18) were victims of fatal knife violence at the main bus station in Oberhausen in February 2024. They were part of the junior team of ART GIANTS Düsseldorf and already knew each other from the Ukrainian capital Kyiv, where they played together in the U-14 national team.
