At least 65 bodies found in Syria’s Aleppo – opposition

At least 65 people apparently shot in the head were found dead with their hands bound in a neighborhood of the northern Syrian city of Aleppo on Tuesday, Jan 29, a pro-opposition monitoring group said.

The Britain-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the death toll could rise as high as 80 in what it called a "new massacre".

It was not clear who carried out the killings, Reuters reported.
