Iraq exhumed 470 bodies from Tikrit mass graves - Yahoo News
In June 2014, armed men belonging or allied to the Islamic State group abducted hundreds of young, mostly Shiite recruits from Speicher base, just outside the city of Tikrit.
They were then lined up in several locations and executed one by one, as shown in pictures and footage that has emerged since.
Some were pushed into the Tigris river, others hastily buried in locations that were discovered when government and allied forces retook Tikrit from the jihadists about two months ago.
