Armed with only one revolver, Youra Livchitz, Robert Maistriau and Jean Franklemon managed to stop a train from Mechelen heading to Germany. On board were many prisoners, mostly Jewish, heading to the extermination camps.
Despite being a heavily secured transport, the three still managed to cause enough trouble for 233 people to escape. 118 of them eventually survived, the rest was killed during the escape or recaptured afterwards.
Youra was eventually captured and killed by the Germana, while Jean and Robert managed to survive the war.
