Damascus Airport Plans Stir Mass-Grave Fears
x/bashar-al-assad
— Sep 12, 2026
Syria’s plan to turn Mezzeh military airport in Damascus into a private-jet hub has rights groups and locals alarmed that redevelopment could disturb grave sites and undermine private land claims tied to decades of expropriation. Documents obtained by the Syria Justice and Accountability Centre indicate executions and detentions were carried out at Mezzeh during the Assad era, prompting calls to halt construction to preserve evidence while the new authorities weigh investment with historic injustices.

x/r-bert-nagy
— Sep 5, 2026
A Hungarian cemetery association hosted a grave-digging contest in Nyergesújfalu that drew 38 competitors and 19 two-person teams, aiming to showcase the trade and shed taboos around death by emphasizing speed and precise grave dimensions. The winning duo, Róbert Nagy and László Kiss, dug a 1.6m by 2m by 0.8m grave in 1 hour 21 minutes and shared a prize of 200,000 forints (about $640).

$640 split two ways seems light for the labor involved, but I guess the recognition is the bigger point here.
