In the graphic video posted Tuesday, dazed and bleeding men are led out of a building as rebels hoist their AK-47s and chant Free Army forever! Be ready for us, Assad. The men are lined up below a mural of Mickey Mouse in what appears to be the courtyard of a school. Within seconds, a barrage of gunfire breaks out and continues for a full minute, before the person filming the shooting, whose lens is occasionally blocked by a hand, gets in close for a shot of what appears to be four bodies piled in a mangled heap.
Those killed were purportedly senior members of the Berri clan, a family closely allied with the Syrian government and, according to Aleppo residents, linked to organized crime and drug smuggling.
In a separate video apparently filmed before the execution, a number of the captured Berri clansmen identify themselves, including Zeino, a senior figure within the group, and Mohammed Shaaban, reportedly a parliamentarian from Aleppo. Both Zeino and Shaaban appear to be among the group that was shot.
