UN experts are "horrified" at the mass
graves unearthed in the Gaza Strip -- 390+ bodies at Nasser & Al
Shifa hospitals, including of women and children, "many reportedly
showing signs of torture & summary executions" and potentially
"people buried alive.” https://t.co/JfdV8xFdacpic.twitter.com/sMbNeWrD7u
TREPCA, Yugoslavia -- When the blanket-covered trucks rolled toward the mining complex near this northern Kosovo town in April, Bexhet Kurti didn't give them much thought. The Yugoslav army had a military base there, after all.
It was in July, after the fighting ended and Mr. Kurti returned to battle-scarred Trepca, that the young house painter started hearing the whispers. "Did you hear there are 700 bodies in the mine?" asked one acquaintance in the hilltop cafe above the mine-shaft tower. "No, not in the mine, but in the furnace" on the other side of the mountain, said another.
By late summer, stories about a Nazi-like body-disposal facility were so widespread that investigators sent a three-man French Gendarmerie team spelunking half a mile down the mine to search for bodies. They found none. Another team analyzed ashes in the furnace. They found no teeth or other signs of burnt bodies.
