A video which has emerged online shows the horrific moment a Syrian rebel accidentally blows himself and fellow freedom fighters up by attempting to take a selfie with a mobile phone rigged to an explosive.
Although the Footage has not been verified, it shows a group of eight men, believed to be members of the Free Syrian Army, gathered around a camera. Sitting in front of a rebel flag and flanked by rifles, they sing into a microphone and appear to be filming a propaganda video. One of the rebels is then seen holding a mobile phone up in front of his face to take a selfie of the group, but as he hits the button, it triggers an explosion.
Shocked rebels can be heard shouting but it is not clear if anyone was killed or injured in the blast. Watch the video after the cut…
