Some 24 victims have yet to be 
identified, Abu Ghazi said,  some because their corpses were so badly 
burnt. He said many  other bodies were dragged away to a nearby Alawite 
village.
                
Video footage released on Thursday 
showed the bodies of at  least a dozen women and children, wrapped in 
colourful blankets  and white burial shrouds, packed with frozen water 
bottles for  want of a morgue or any other refrigeration.
                
Activists
 said they included a grandmother, her daughter and  five grand-children
 killed in Mazraat al-Qubeir. Charred  remains, possibly human body 
parts, were also visible.
                
"These are the children
 of the Mazraat al-Qubeir  massacre... Look, you Arabs and Muslims - is 
this a terrorist?"  asked the cameraman, focusing on one of the dead 
infants.
                
The killings came less than two weeks after the massacre in  Houla, in which children accounted for nearly half the dead.
