A couple, whose wedding celebration ended in disaster after a fire killed more than 100 of their guests, have told Sky News they are “dead inside” following the tragedy.
Revan, 27, and bride, Haneen, 18, survived the blaze, which began inside a packed wedding hall in Qaragosh in the Nineveh province of Northern Iraq.
At least 150 others were also inj¥red as a result of the incident.

Her father is also in a critical condition. “It’s true that we’re sitting here in front of you alive. But inside we are d£ad. We are numb. We are d£ad inside,” he said.
