al jazeera: mass grave has been found in Deraa,Syria.

A mass grave has been discovered in the southern town of Deraa, which has been at the heart of the protest movement against President Bashar al-Assad's rule.

"The Syrian army today allowed residents to venture outside their homes for two hours a day," Ammar Qurabi, of the National Organisation for Human Rights in Syria, told AFP.

"They discovered a mass grave in the old part of town but authorities immediately cordoned off the area to prevent residents from recovering the bodies, some of which they promised would be handed over later," he said. He added that he did not know how many people were buried in the grave.

Qurabi was speaking on the telephone from Cairo, the Egyptian capital. He said the Syrian government must bear the responsibility for crimes against "unarmed" citizens and that the international community should exert pressure on it to stop the "brutal repression" of Syrians.
