W: They were about to prepare.They waited for the others to all be there. They kept them for two or three hours in the sun! Do you understand? They didn’t want to shoot these and then others. They soaked them in order to keep them quiet. Later, when they saw that there would not be others maybe, they brought them in the carts, who knows? They started the shooting."
