Report: Hizbullah Burying Hundreds of Its Fighters in Syria
(Times of Israel) Elhanan Miller - Moayyed Ghazlan, a member of the Syrian National Council general secretariat, told CNN Arabic on Wednesday that his organization has discovered a number of mass graves in which Hizbullah buried its fighters following each battle with the rebels in order not to return the bodies for official burial in Lebanon. Their purpose "is to hide the true extent of casualties from the fighters and rebels in Syria." An EU decision this week to include Hizbullah's military wing in the European list of terror organizations is widely viewed as a direct consequence of the group's decision to send troops to Syria.
