Experts probe Afghan mass grave

Scientific tests are to be carried out on bodies found in a mass grave in Afghanistan to try to determine the age of the human remains.

Afghan officials announced that the grave had been discovered earlier this month.

A special commission has been to visit the site, in the desert near the capital, Kabul.

The commission says it will complete its investigation and report back to President Hamid Karzai.

Warning, graphic photo at link.

Appears to be Soviet dumping ground.
