An Israeli soldier who was filmed shooting a wounded and disarmed Palestinian attacker has been found guilty of manslaughter.


20 year-old Sergeant Elor Azaria shot the man in the head while he was lying on a road in West Bank city of Hebron.

Sergeant Azaria told the court he shot the 21 year-old Palestinian because he thought he might have been wearing a suicide vest.

But the prosecutors argued he was motivated by revenge.
