65 executed bodies found in Syria
The bodies of at least 65 young men and boys, all executed with a single gunshot to the head or neck, were found yesterday in a river in the Syrian city of Aleppo, a watchdog and rebels said.
The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 65 bodies were found in the Quweiq River and said that the toll could rise significantly.
A Free Syrian Army officer at the scene said at least 68 bodies had been recovered and that many more were still being dragged from the water, in a rebel-held area.
A senior government security source accused "terrorists" for carrying out the executions.
Most have their hands are tied behind their backs and pools of blood trail from their heads. Their faces are white and bodies bloated.
