Talk:Alleged Chemical Attack, August 21, 2013/Locations

Via M of O: ''The reported neighborhoods of this reported chemical attack in the Damascus Al-Ghouta area are: Hammuriyah, Irbin, Saqba, Kafr Batna, Mudamiyah, Harasta, Zamalka and Ain Terma. Those are rebel-held areas and have been all this year.''

Looking at the two maps it seems the numbers listed are Hammuriyah: 300, Irbin: 64+17+16+30, Saqba: ?, Kafr Batna: 150, Mudamiyah: ?, Harasta: ?, Zamalka: 400 and Ain Terma: 75. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 23:58, 22 August 2013 (UTC)
 * Irbin 63 (30 children, 16 women, 17 men), Hamouriya 300, Saqba 69, Zamalka 400, Kafr Batna 150, Ayn Tarma 75 and Jisrayn 16 (3 children) and al-Muaddamiya 70 (plus 300 wounded).Jokkmokks goran (talk) 19:53, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

How is it possible there casualties in Hammuriyah and Saqba and Kafr Batna and none in Hazeh ???! The gas ostensibly came from a number of strikes in South Zamalka. It would have had to pass directly through Hazeh to reach Hammuriyah and Saqba and Kafr Batna yet we have no casualty reports from Hazeh. Something is extremely fishy here --Charles Wood (talk) 09:31, 20 April 2014 (UTC)



NY Times interactive map. Attack areas very close together, suspected launch site in Qaboun, but barely, almost in Jobar. And it shows Jobar hit, about ten blocks away from the launch site. Says UN investigators were attacked on the edge of rebel-infested Moadamiya SW of Damascus. this article says A map with a NYT article shows the launch site in a disputed area, which both Qaboun and Jobar are listed as. However, I didn't see the same map there, and it's very zoomed-out and imprecise. --Caustic Logic (talk) 10:22, 28 August 2013 (UTC)

Zamalka hospital and morgue
To be located

I went through the Shaam gallery for Damascus countryside, but could not find any photos that were labeled as Zamalka. Maybe the 400 bodies were too degraded to be shown on film and had to be directly dumped into the mass grave, before any mourning could take place. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 08:14, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Zamalka Mass Grave

 * Zamalka 21/08/2013 man lost his temper after he lost his family and the people of his neighborhood
 * This shows the start of an anonymous rebel-run mass grave. These are dug after each contested massacre. So far, only a few adult males are laid in there, and a guy with a koran held aloft is ranting. It's in a large clearing I might be able to find, despite the koran blocking the view. Presuming early afternoon (Aug. 21, must be later in the day), the camera is facing about west or southwest. Zamalka on Wikimapia - it's set so its west is generally a bit SW. Here's one good fit. A problem is the whole view to the left/south, as seen at 0:22. I'll be back with more guesses. --Caustic Logic (talk) 11:55, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * (Belated location link, sorry) --Caustic Logic (talk) 08:57, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Nah, that's my guess. Too hard to explain all details, but it seems he's way at the NW corner of this lot (ie in the intersection), just north of the building seen hard left at 0:22. Perhaps a new wall, or the same one there curving away to the south? Circular dot on roof, check. Earlier, looking WSW, far right a distance building with a tall part - no such match, but if the tall part could be the water tower on that same line, match. Other details line up enough I'll say this spot, some foreground buildings torn down, fresh dozing, maybe expanded out into area that was pavement, maybe a new wall. --Caustic Logic (talk) 12:17, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * The video is published at 2013-08-21T12:35:31.000Z i.e. 3:35 pm in Syria. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 21:28, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Thanks, seems to fit. Might help verify place or date (filmed earlier than 3:35). --Caustic Logic (talk) 08:57, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * This is strange, the clearing is very prominent, yet I cannot find it anywhere in western Damascus. I did not look earlier, as I thought this would be trivial for someone else to place on the map. Evidently not so. Note the power line on the left, should help in locating the place. The 5-story building straight ahead (to the south or west depending on the time of the day) is particularly large for its type, seven rows of windows + one for the stairwell. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 22:32, 2 September 2013 (UTC)
 * As I said, I think I found it. And I clearly said "here." You just weren't looking where I was pointing. Duh. :P No, somehow I never linked it. That would have been my reference. Will be as soon as I re-locate the spot that's at least a pretty good fit. Saving now, next revision, will appear above. --Caustic Logic (talk) 08:49, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Added above. I'll let you double-check/second guess and move on. Cheers! --Caustic Logic (talk) 08:57, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Yes, I recognize the buildings in the February 12, 2012 Google Earth image. Your location is not quite correct, it is 130 meters northeast, in the junkyard, across the street from the green walled-off area at the southern end of the red long factory-type building. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 10:53, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Right on. All the distance stuff matches, but it still looked a little weird, and this refinement explains those last parts. Same row of pillars is there, isn't it? So it that lot, one spot verified in Damascus. Do we see any real number of bodies ever put in there? --Caustic Logic (talk) 12:20, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

 * The sequence in question (finally watched it) makes me upset and highly suspicious these people are Alawites or something. As I just decided to say in comments there: Wow those are some dead-baby-shakers. Why do those men hate those kids so much? They're really shaking them around a lot. I was getting nervous that they'd start swinging them into the ground by one arm to show how upset they are. --Caustic Logic (talk) 13:19, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Lucum has done some extremely good work at his Eskimo blog. The VDC video also shows individual graves, similar in type to the pit were the ghost house children were dumped. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 04:31, 19 October 2013 (UTC)
 * 1) First, he has located videos of the "burial of more than 80 martyrs as a result of the massacre" on July 1, 2012. These older mass graves are in fact visible on the default Google Earth image. He calculates that at most 40 victims could have been buried in the August 21, 2013 mass grave.
 * 2) He has also found a VDC video uploaded August 21 from the grave site. It shows a book with the names of 149 victims. The names are written on a blank calender or diary for the year 2007. The names start on the page for Saturday, August 21, 2007 and go on for several pages. It does not seem possible, that the people recorded were buried at this site.


 * Interesting page, very cool finds. videos exactly a year apart? I agree on the surface-area-allowed body capacity, 40 sounds reasonable, but including kids, probably 50 could fit. It could also be expanded. And one thing I'm noticing now is how friggin' deep that grave is. I guess they usually try to dig down a way, but this seems super deep. Piling isn't normal, but none of this is. You could get a few layers of 40 each in there. --Caustic Logic (talk) 13:19, 19 October 2013 (UTC)


 * And as for the koran pointing the wrong way, as Lucum noted, funny. But the guy is covering his eyes from the dust, and probably they're all just so disoriented by the unknown toxic chemical gas clouds, right? Or are they presiding of anti-Muslims, so doing things backwards? --Caustic Logic (talk) 13:19, 19 October 2013 (UTC)

Zamalka ghost house

 * ''Main article Zamalka ghost house

Now stated to be in Zamalka, see Talk:Alleged Chemical Attack, August 21, 2013/Zamalka ghost house

Hints: The neighborhood looks deserted, most likely because of the near-by front line. The cameramen are warned not to go to the roof because of the danger from snipers. the same house is also discussed in this article, so the videos there may be of some help. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 04:32, 9 September 2013 (UTC)


 * What time is the visit? Where is the sun coming from? Does the stairwell face south, east or west? These are the only three possibilities in the Zamalka grid plan. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 10:12, 9 September 2013 (UTC)

Excellent stills. Sun is low and long. I would guess at 3:43 they're looking west (generally WSW in Zamalka) and it's afternoon. 36 hours suggests that. And it usually is. If not, then morning and roughly opposite. I decided to look around a bit, mainly for that prominent large building with two stairwells. I'm guessing I won't find it now. Will sleep in a few. --Caustic Logic (talk) 14:26, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
 * This (on Google Maps) is the type of building that could explain a PM view. Does that left side curve away on video? This could be it, but no opinion on the foreground. Otherwise, building with those double stairwells are common, motst facing the other way and working better with a morning view. --Caustic Logic (talk) 14:35, 14 September 2013 (UTC)


 * The two-stairwell building is special for the large number of windows between the stairwells: six. At first I thought this would be on the southwestern edge of Zamalka, looking east, but based on the location of the UMLACA impacts published by HRW, I decided it was most likely on the eastern side, looking west. I have not had time to look or even check you match on Google Earth. There are few good photos on Google Earth looking west – in fact only one and it is awfully dark.
 * The number of impact sites here, could indicate this is the site of a gas rocket attack. It could also indicate this is a contested area, long since abandoned by its inhabitants – a perfect place to plant fake gas attack bodies! -- Petri Krohn (talk) 14:55, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
 * I find this a likely match. There are three rooms (apartments) between the stairwells, each with a window and some kind of balcony. The ghost house would be the 4 1/2 story building 250 meters to the west (both figures exact, here on Google Maps). Both these buildings do not show up in the March 3, 2010 satellite photo, but construction is well under way on May 5, 2011. It is likely that ate least one of the sites would be left unfinished because of the crisis and war. I think I am able to identify three of the higher buildings in between. The west-facing courtyard in front of the ghost house is a good match.
 * Note, that the ghost house has a large cellar, perfect for holding prisoners – although they would need to wall up the windows first. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 15:20, 14 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Agreed, that's a very likely match. Was strolling around a bit and found this one further west but the windows don't really match and I couldn't come up with a plausible place for the ghost house. The two-stairwell building in question has two lines of windows from the one stairway to the end, and three lines of windows from the other one to the end, which it also seems to have on the map (2 north, 3 south). And there seems to be the little roof garden in the proper line close to the ghost house. --CE (talk) 17:31, 14 September 2013 (UTC)


 * For some reason my uploaded picture gets messed up, I placed the location on the HRW impact map. But we all know where it is anyway - exactly where it "should be", between two close "impacts" and near a couple of others. The plot thickens. Maybe time to watch the HRW videos. --CE (talk) 18:09, 14 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Plot thickens... Are you saying this is the time to use theatrical props, like smoke generators, pyrotechnics and sarin dispensers? - ??


 * I checked the vantage point too for the unique rooftop nearby, sloped-roof structure on the near side, greenery on the other. There's a rooftop like that nearest the building. Sun angle makes the sloped roof less clear, but that's it. Red tanks, bright as hell on video, don't seem to appear from space here. No surprise.--Caustic Logic (talk) 01:02, 16 September 2013 (UTC)

Kafr Batna hospital

 * See also /Kafr Batna

The larges collection of victims is seen in the videos from the Kafr Batna Coordinating Committee. The two earliest videos show nighttime outside scenes, with people in panic. The location is a hospital, possibly a temporary field hospital set up in a school or other public building. The large number of victims (100+) indicates that place could in fact be in Zamalka, with its reported 340 victims and not in Kafr Batna.

Photos of the victims on Facebook here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, here, and here

Wikimapia shows an Al-Fateh Hospital in Kafr Batna. Rebel videos from September 2012 show a fire at the hospital: FNN Syria Kafar Batna Regime thugs are burning al Fateh hospital 1 9 2012 (2, 3). This is not the place with the CW victims.

Searching images and videos for Kafr Batna + hospital (مستشفى& كفربطنا+مستشفى) did not produce a match. No luck for Zamalka + hospitat on Goolge or YouTube either. There is a hospital or field hospital in Zamalka shown in these two videos, but it does not look like the same place. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 06:32, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Reconstruction
The hospital is separated from a street by a stone-pawed courtyard. Between the courtyard and the street is a fence with ball-topped pillars. Inside the fence is a narrow strip of vegetation behind a low retaining wall. (This video of a similar fence in an unrelated hospital hints that the fence could be facing south.) We see two cars passing on the street from right to left. On the opposite side of the street are some multi-story buildings. Outside the fence grow some tall trees. The daytime view from the window shows the sun shining on the upper floors of the buildings across the street, indicating that the windows are in a northerly direction.

The large brightly lit room or hall used as a morgue is parallel to the street and the courtyard, with a row of large windows facing the courtyard. The entrance to the building is to the right of the hall, with stairs and a ramp on the right side. Behind the ramp is another wing of the building, perpendicular to the main hall, with light shining out of the cellar windows. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 03:30, 7 September 2013 (UTC)


 * It's possible maybe to find the spot from that photo, but man... I say the spot is only so important - maybe important, likely not. If we see anything that makes finding it easy, it should be done. Headaches and wasted hours for unsure results on possibly semi-important info - not for me anyway.--Caustic Logic (talk) 12:50, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Found it! It is one block north from where Google Earth places the Kafr Batna spot next to the central roundabout. The building is a 7 story rectangular office building with a 1 story annex in the back. The fence and the courtyard are best seen looking from the north on the 26 June 2009 image. Here on Google Maps. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 16:28, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
 * Now that it's more of an issue with release of Denis O'Brien's investigation, I'm looking at this. There is no June 26, but June 29, 2009 is a good view. I'm getting a slow start though. We're talking the big main building there? What says former municipal? And which basic direction (N,E,W,S) are we looking when we look out that window? He has a room size estimate of 28 by 50 feet. I want to see about putting his diagrams into the footprint, identify and confirm the exterior walkway that he uses to connect the dark and sun morgues into one building, or something along these lines. --Caustic Logic (talk) 08:05, 20 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Denis O'Brien quotes me, but he gets it wrong:
 * Furthermore, there is a guy named #Petri #Krohn at the website A Closer Look On Syria (ACLOS) who is a wizard at looking at a place shown in still images and videos and finding the place on Google Earth. In this case Petri has seized upon a view in one of the videos where you can see through a window of the SM to the adjacent buildings, and he has deduced that the morgue is precisely at 33°30'55.24" N 36°22'25.13" E. I’m not sharp enough to follow Petri’s complex geo-location process, and so I can’t confirm or certify his results, but he’s good at this, and so I throw these coordinates out there in case you want to have a look. At the very least Petri’s analysis pinpoints the Kafr Batna neighborhood so you can use Google Earth to have a look around. (Part A, page 13)
 * The coordinates he gives are right in the middle of Zamalka. Maybe this is a stylistic touch; it doesn't really matter where the sun morgue is, could as well be in the middle of nowhere! -- Petri Krohn (talk) 20:00, 20 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Thanks, was wondering about that. I didn't think it mattered, but now it could help check/solidify his spatial mapping. I asked which way the windows face, but I guess it's south and that's the courtyard with diagonal sidewalk. But isn't that the top of a car? Parked on the sidewalk? Help me out - we all don't really understand! --Caustic Logic (talk) 23:53, 20 April 2014 (UTC)



Challenge
I'm going to challenge that location now. I've got a lightened version of Denis' SM-c video (031a and 031b here) and the scene mapped out. It tells us little about the shapes of the buildings, just their relation to the courtyard, driveway, surrounding streets. I think what we're looking for (if it's important enough to bother) is one main building with maybe a smaller side one, set near but back from a corner. Tail-lights on the one street can be seen in about these positions, and vehicles pulling in suggests the other street. Mapping out the turns, the camera winds up underground beneath another building I reason must be across the street at surface level. Does that make sense? SM = sun morgue, DM, presuming the connection (seems likely just from this) would be over there. This doesn't seem to match with the buildings in this area, from any angle. --Caustic Logic (talk) 23:12, 24 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Your map is simply wrong. The windows of the Sun Morgue (SM?) are facing north, towards the street and the fence. See photo File:Kafar Batna girls removed.jpg above. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 23:44, 24 April 2014 (UTC)
 * P.S. – I took some screenshots from Google earth and uploaded them to Category:Aerial images. See this view from the south on 29 June 2009. The view from 18 November 2006 even shows the pillars inside the morgue / meeting hall. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 00:41, 25 April 2014 (UTC)


 * Sorry, man. I'm getting manic over here, and rushed bringing this. I didn't even put it in the right spot, or read the explanation recently at this spot. Thanks for the cleanup, ref images, etc. I have all those already, but haven't reconciled it all one way or the other. First, it's not a map; up isn't north, just forward from the usual view. No (clear) clue at night. Next - you might be right that I have this wrong - I looked again and saw the greenery opposite the main outer wall, with a whole other corner and wall segment in there, but then again twice I was sure this line is at 90-degree like here. I'm going to review in a bit, maybe. But in case I don't get to it today, this note. --Caustic Logic (talk) 09:59, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

I just figured out we're seeing two different corners. That didn't seem possible from the panning. Video 31b first covers the upper span - at 0:18 seeing the wall with lower lights on, the ramp, and victims around there. 0:21, 90 degrees to the gate onto the street. 0:27 another 90 to the driveway. 0:28 another 90 and we're again looking at the start wall, but now it's a different wall, with an inset area and another wall to the right, instead of the fence and gate. I count the four sides of that yellow square of stone paving, and there seem to be exactly four in that full-circle pan. But then ... 90 x3 = 270, doesn't it? So clearly, I'm a bit confused and maybe this will all line up. And there are complex corners, yellow paving, and a fence with a gate all there. I want to see it though, and show the work so everyone can. Sorry it's taking so long. --Caustic Logic (talk) 23:40, 25 April 2014 (UTC)

I thought I could correlate everything, but the lights swithching (upstairs on, downstairs off) within a few seconds was clearly odd... I've figured out the video scene correctly now, I think, and I'm 97% certain you did get the right place. Awesome! Considering both corners, a turn at 0:26 in the longer video helping to show the stairs run parrallel to the ramp, it correlated like this (now rotated roughly to what you're seeing as north).

It fits the profile of that north lot quite well, with the sun morgue being in the smaller, lower building, and the dark morgue (if that all correlates, as I suspect) in the basement of the office (or apartment, I think) building. I can't make out if there's a ramp on that side, which would be the smoking gun. But the recessed area is explained here, and ... halfway through writing I'll up it to 98% sure, and I never say 100%. Adequate to proceed. --Caustic Logic (talk) 08:55, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I also noted the lights turned on and off. Made me assume the cellar morgue was under the main wing. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 15:17, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

Next, f*****g awesome, this allows me to finish the scale comparison I started when I didn't know what the hell to do next. In MITSM, Denis estimates the sun mogue, from sized and couted tiles, as about 28 by 50 feet. You can see how that lines up here - almost exact with the part of that building it would fill. The DM mapping I copied into rectangles and made it kind of fit. This was never seriously proportioned, I think, but probably made as close as reasonable. I'm not even sure I got it the right size, just shrunk 'til it seemed close enough for this visualization. Seems pretty likey this all fits under here. --Caustic Logic (talk) 10:18, 26 April 2014 (UTC)
 * Does Denis say four windows in the sun morgue? I thought I counted only three. From the outside one can see four windows, but it could be that the last window is cut off by an internal wall. The pillars seen on 18 November 2006 do not seem to fit Denis' diagram. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 15:17, 26 April 2014 (UTC)



For reference, Denis' diagrams based on interior video analysis. I haven't confirmed his linking of other morgue videos together, but presume it's good. As noted, these are not drawn to scale. The measurements I used for the SM yellow rectangle above are from the text (part B, page 5 - this figure is on page 4) --Caustic Logic (talk) 12:00, 26 April 2014 (UTC)

Saqba schoolyard bodies
A number of bodies are shown in nighttime shots placed on the pavement of what seems to be a school yard. The same scene is seen in daytime on this video of an agitated Salafist making a speech. There is graffiti on the school walls that has been painted over. The school gate is seen on the video as is some of the surroundings, including an electricity pole right outside the gate.

I have named the set of photos as Douma victims, as one further nighttime photo with a Douma logo has similar appearance with specs of dirt on lens. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 10:17, 7 September 2013 (UTC)

Good start in getting all this set to one location and positing Douma. IF this was pretty sure Douma, would help, but even then that's a big town. And we have some visuals, but too many rotations possible. No clear sunlight angles here. Seems very cloudy, or else before full sunrise. Until you can be sure what direction that power pole and big tree are in, it's a cluster of headaches to look for all possible fits. Yet another I'll be sitting out for now. --Caustic Logic (talk) 13:03, 7 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Syrian schools are quote easy to spot on the map, all have similar prefabricated architecture. I do not think there are too many in Douma. P.S. Found one in Ein Tarma that could be the place. P.P.S. The Ein Tarma school has similar design, but the wing lining the street is only one story, as the school on the video is two story. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 13:17, 7 September 2013 (UTC)


 * Found it! It is in southern Saqba, opposite this telephone exchange on Wikimapia, here on Google maps. The video camera and the school gate is facing north-northeast. -- Petri Krohn (talk) 14:10, 7 September 2013 (UTC)
