A funeral for a fallen 'Free Syrian Army' member turns to carnage when an explosive device detonates in a vehicle. The use of VBIEDs and suicide bombings is almost entirely a 'Free Syrian Army' and Al-Qaeda tactic in Syria, and they commonly post videos to glorify the acts of destruction in public arenas. The 'Free Syrian Army' itself has confirmed that this was due to an explosive device in a vehicle (they discount the initial words of the cameraman, who during the confusion believed it was an artillery shell).

This may therefore have been an explosion of one of their own by mistake, and no party has claimed responsibility. There have been several incidents of premature explosions killing the owners in their vehicles or hideouts. An example of the use of the VBIED by 'Free Syrian Army' cells today can be seen at
