German-Israeli Soldier Investigated for Alleged Shooting of Unarmed Palestinians in Gaza

An Israeli soldier from Munich is under investigation for his alleged role in the fatal shooting of unarmed men in Gaza. Video evidence appears to support accusations that the incident was a war crime. The soldier served as a sniper in a military unit. A second sniper from the same unit is also implicated in the alleged event. International law prohibits the targeting of individuals who are not participating in hostilities. The Israeli military has confirmed it is examining the footage and the soldiers' conduct.
