This video purports to show coffins held high in a funeral procession in Idlib, Syria.
Chanting "the Arab nation is a traitor," a speaker denounces Arab countries for not helping protesters in their uprising against President Bashar al-Assad.
Obtained from a social media web site, the video cannot be independently verified by Reuters.
More video - also obtained online - shows funerals in Homs and Damascus.
