A new video uploaded to YouTube provides good evidence of the range of the kind of rockets allegedly fired into East Ghouta on 21 August – under 2km and possibly too short a distance to have been fired from government territory. I found this video on YouTube after following up on an Eliot Higgins’ post […]
