Archaeologists working at the site of the Nazi concentration camp at Sobibor, in eastern Poland, say they have uncovered previously hidden gas chambers in which an estimated 250,000 Jews were killed.

German forces tried to erase all traces of the camp when they closed it down following an uprising there on October 14, 1943. The Nazis demolished the gas chambers and an asphalt road was later built over the top.
