Syria Hama Massacre: Mazraat Al Qubair Survivor Tells Of Horror In Villages
clip from article: ODIES IN BLANKETS
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.
