1/ This thread is a bit horrific. ERT, first response team is now exhuming bodies from biggest massgrave in #Raqqa. The Panorama massgrave located in the SW of the city in a former park where daesh burried killed fighters & civilians they used as human shields who died. 
2/ Also civilians who tried to flee them and were caught & killed were burried here. And people who were executed during their reign. From a nice garden before war daesh turned it a place of horror. It is thought 1200-1500 bodies are there. Sofar 75 were exhumed. Many more to go
3/ All the bodies exhumed are documented as well as possible so families looking for lost relatives can find them again and reburry properly. Sadly many bodies remain unidentified. Possibly also bodies of people they took from anywhere in syria/iraq to Raqqa & killed there.
