This terrible footage shows the extent of COVID-19 damage in India.
Hundreds of bodies, believed to be victims of the virus, are seen partially exposed in sand graves on the banks of the Ganges River.
Gravediggers at the site said that there has been a dramatic increase in the number of bodies arriving for burials and cremations since April.
