Al-Jazeera Video: Syria Unrest: 'Mini-massacre' witnessed near Izraa



"Al Jazeera's Cal Perry, ended up witnessing a "mini-massacre" when unknown assailants opened fire on a funeral procession near Izraa on Saturday.

Perry had to beat a rather hasty retreat from Syria yesterday, after authorities refused to renew his visa, threatening him with "the full force of the law".

Realising that "the full force of the law" in Syria can be rather unpleasant, Cal made for the Jordanian border, where he came upon a "mini-massacre" in progress near Izraa.

Al Jazeera's Tony Harris interviewed our correspondent shorly after the harrowing incident."
