As many as 13,000 people, most of them civilian opposition supporters, have been executed in secret at a prison in Syria, Amnesty International says.
A new report by the human rights group alleges that mass hangings took place every week at Saydnaya prison between September 2011 and December 2015.
Amnesty says the alleged executions were authorised at the highest levels of the Syrian government.

Well the BBC are only reporting what Amnesty have said so if you want you can go to the source and take a look at them.
Also i find it very hard to believe that all 13,000 were members of ISIS or other terrorist groups.

We need to stop killing ragheads for Israel. The US dropped 23,000 bombs on five predominately Muslim countries in 2015 alone. I don't think they hate us because we have too much porn on TV or NFL football. I think they hates us because we bomb the effing shiite out of them. With buildings destroyed and no means for making a living people are driven into abject poverty. They become refuges and become radicalized. Just imagine if Russia dropped 23,000 bombs on Kentucky. How do you think the people in Kentucky would feel about Russia?
