According to two witnesses interviewed by B'tselem, second Hebron terrorist was shot and immobilized, and then only later shot in the head; IDF says claims untrue.
In a stunning development, B’Tselem announced on Monday that it has interviewed two witnesses who said a second IDF soldier executed another terrorist during what has become known as the Hebron shooter incident.
Sgt. Elor Azaria is currently on trial for manslaughter for the March 24 shooting of Abdel Fatah al-Sharif who attacked IDF soldiers, but was shot and wounded. Several minutes later, Azaria shot and killed the wounded and immobile terrorist.
The shooting, documented on a video distributed by B’Tselem, went viral online and triggered a national debate over Azaria’s guilt or innocence.
A second terrorist, Ramzi al-Kasrawi, was also shot and killed during the incident. Until now the assumption has been that al-Kasrawi was shot in self-defense, while the situation was still dynamic and he was attacking the soldiers.
