Footage uploaded to YouTube has shown the aftermath of what is believed to be a barrel bomb attack on a refugee camp. The vision shows charred and dismembered corpses of women and children, while tents burned as people scrambled to save the wounded. The British-based Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said 10 civilians died in the massacre, with the United States calling the attack “barbaric”. Barrel bombs are crudely-made containers filled with nails, metal shrapnel and explosives, and have been used a number of times by the Bashar al-Assad regime.
