French and German experts have begun exhuming the remains of a group of Nazi soldiers who were executed by French Resistance fighters during World War II. They were buried in a mass grave that lay hidden for almost 80 years before it was uncovered last month.
Members of the Resistance shot dead 47 German soldiers in June 1944 near the small town of Meymac, around 500 kilometres south of Paris in the department of Corrèze.
