The testimony captured both the raw grief of survivors and the scale of loss inflicted during the attack.

Dressed in an orange tie-dye shirt, the visibly shaken survivor described how the assault began without warning.

In the chaos, he made the desperate decision to throw his infant daughter out of a window before fleeing with her.

Armed men were already breaking down doors in the surrounding homes.

Where did the burial take place?

The footage also documents the aftermath at a mass burial site, where mourners gathered around a large open grave holding multiple bodies wrapped in cloth.

The burial took place in an open grassy field under an overcast sky, with a crowd of mourners visible throughout.

The combination of first-hand testimony and graphic burial imagery has driven widespread attention to the footage online.
