Experts theorise the bodies of thechildren may have been from a camp that drained blood to supply German soldiers
A gruesome previously unknown mass grave of 1,362 Nazi victims - including 675 children - has been unearthed in western Russia.
The dead - all believed to be civilians - were found in a macabre unrecorded genocide burial close to the base of an invading Hitler SS unit during the Second World War, say experts.
The victims - almost all without visible wounds - were naked and without shoes when they were buried.
One harrowing theory is that younger remains here were from a notorious nearby concentration camp where at any one time 300-plus children were brutally incarcerated solely to supply blood for wounded German officers and soldiers fighting near Leningrad - now St Petersburg.
