What FACTLY found

These visuals show Syrian military executing civilians during the Syrian civil war in 2013. The video came to light in 2022, and several news agencies reported the video. In wake of the recent earthquake in Turkey, contractors, architects and engineers are under scanner for their shoddy work, resulting in the collapse of thousands of buildings. However, there are no reports of any mass execution of these contractors
