KEY POINTS:
The remains of the last Tsar's son and heir, missing since the royal family were executed nine decades ago by Bolsheviks in a basement room, may have been found, an archaeologist says.
Bones found in the remnants of a bonfire near Yekaterinburg, the city where Tsar Nicholas II and his wife and children were held prisoner and then shot in 1918, are said to belong to a boy and a young woman roughly the ages of the Tsar's son Alexei and a daughter, whose remains have also never been found.
