ISIS buried thousands in mass graves

The so-called Islamic State has buried thousands of people in mass graves in Syria and Iraq.

This is according to new evidence gathered by the Associated Press, in which they documented and mapped 72 of the mass graves.

AP's international security correspondent Lori Hinnant was in Iraq during this discovery. She told Chris Rogers ISIS 'made no effort to hide the atrocities that took place'.
