Palmyra mass grave reveals suffering during IS occupation
The Syrian Army says it has discovered a mass grave with around 40 bodies in the city of Palmyra, according to state-run media.
The ancient city was recently recaptured by government forces from the so-called Islamic State group (IS).
The BBC's Alan Johnston said the discovery was not unexpected, given the length of time that IS had held the city.
