A faceb00kian commented: according to google earth images, the time between the relatively untouched site and the total destruction on the right is even shorter, 8-9 months. this means that the looting is done in industrial-scale organised manner with enormous manpower. possibly under protection.
Apamea: Satellite images showing holes dug all over the site; other images taken by activists on the ground are showing a tower ransacked by looters. A third photo is showing a portion of the Great Colonnade of Apamea destroyed by bombing. According to our sources on the ground, 30 mosaics from this site were stolen. Attached to this post you will find a photo showing one of these mosaics.
