Utterly compelling reporting here from @paraicobrien. A report that encompasses so many of the unspeakable horrors of the Assad regime. A Syrian mass grave with at least 150,000 buried. āOnce they had to call the fire brigade because 100 bodies were frozen together.ā.

Such very sad news. Despite everything she went through (and it was a lot) Clodagh, who I knew personally, was tireless in her efforts to alert other people under 50 of the increasing risk of bowel cancer. An incredible patient advocate. My sympathies to her family.
With deep sadness we share news of the passing of our dear friend Clodagh Downing. Everyone at the Foundation who had the privilege of knowing Clodagh is heartbroken. Our deepest condolences to Daniel, Fintan & all Clodagh's loved ones. Full tribute. #RIP
