THE full horror of the Russian school atrocity began to emerge yesterday as traumatised children told horrific tales of stabbed babies and brutal rapes.
It has also emerged that scores of the 323 who died - including many children - had been shot in the back.
While despairing soldiers and rescue workers moved among the growing pile of body bags, it was revealed that an 18-month-old baby had been repeatedly stabbed by a black-clad terrorist who had run out of ammunition.
Other survivors told how screaming teenage girls were dragged into rooms adjoining the gymnasium where they were being held and raped by their Chechen captors who chillingly made a video film of their appalling exploits
They said children were forced to drink their own urine and eat the petals off the flowers they had brought their teachers after nearly three days without food or water in the stifling hot gym.
Their stories came as Russian officials warned that the final death toll of the siege of Middle School No 1 at Beslan in North Ossetia - in which up to 1,200 people were held captive - was likely to be more than 400.
The official toll yesterday stood at 323 which included 156 children, 10 Russian soldiers and two emergency service workers - 35 of the hostage-takers were also killed. Last night 434 people were being treated in hospital with 247 children and 85 adults in a critical condition.
A Russian official said six seriously injured children had been taken to Moscow for treatment.
"One of them is a child, just 18 months old, with many knife wounds," he said.

EXCELLENT~!
"Trust me a couple of those words went through my mind, but being a lady, I couldn't post them."
I'm usually a "lady", but I'm also a mom and when I see children suffer, the "lady" stuff gets thrown out the window. :-}
Thank you Lord!
I thirst for blood.
Thanks for the ping, well said. We need to hit the call-in talk shows this week and demand that the media turn on the kitchen light so we can step on some Islamo-cockroaches.
I believe the White House issued a statement, but it was obscured by all the hurricane and heart bypass coverage.
I haven't felt this much rage since 9/11. My lord, how can the media talk in measured tones of "insurgents" and "rebels" after going on and on about the hurricane and Clinton's clogged arteries?
Exactly.
That is really well-done. ROFL! Thanks. Did you write it?
I don't put anything past the Chechen scum, but the Sunday Mirror is a sensationalist pieces of fish-wrap.
Even AMERICANS like Herbert Gregg, who were held and tortured, were not mentioned here.
The US media also passed on the 3 Brits/New Zealanders who had their heads cut off. Had to read BBC to get that story.
Oh thank you for that news. I've been praying for them all as a group, and the individuals I've heard about, but extra prayers have been going up for this family. Out of all this tragedy, this was the family that tore the most at my heart.
Okay, pard!
We'll look for you then!
We'll take plenty of pics to whet your appetite!
Stay safe !
It is probably done on purpose.
It's definately done on purpose. Ashcroft doesn't want Muslim bashing in the United States until we have an alternative to oil.
I believe is worthy of all out war. Pull no punches and don't give a damn about the consequences. These animals deserve the worst.
As the expression goes..."find out what they love and kill it."
I'm looking forward to the answer. I don't know if Boazo wrote it, but you can bet your eye teeth Neil Young didn't write it. LOL
Well, everyone likes the Bullet Hole in San Antonio, and they seem to like us (unlike some places we've been).
If that's satisfactory with everyone I'll line it up there for October 2.
Let's see if we can make some targets like these baby killing bastards!
I'll bet our aim will improve.
My suggestion to the Chechnyan problem is give the disgruntled Chechs a choice to leave Russia or accept relocation to another province.
