French resistance fighters are said to have shot 47 Wehrmacht soldiers and a French woman in June 1944. Edmond Réveil is the last eyewitness to the crime and speaks to French media about it for the first time.
"We forced them all to dig their own graves. Then we never talked about it again," he says. In the coming weeks, the French authorities want to search for the mass grave and recover the remains of the war dead, says the mayor of Meymac.
