Civilians in the southern part of Qara, in the Damascus countryside, discovered a site suspected of containing a new mass grave. Sealed bags containing human bones were found at the location.
Additional bags containing further human remains were also discovered nearby. The area where the remains were found had been under the control of the Lebanese Hezbollah militia in recent years.
