Video Shows Syrian Rebels Executing Soldiers 
---------------------------------------------


 
A new video has been released from Syria showing armed rebels executing
a group of government soldiers. On the tape, 10 prisoners are forced to
lie on top of one another at an overrun military checkpoint.
Anti-government fighters are seen kicking and taunting the captured
soldiers before opening fire. Amnesty International has condemned the
footage, saying it depicts "utter disregard for international
humanitarian law."
