        @BBCBreaking The circumstances which led to this incident are unclear ..strangely the recording only captures the incident in question.

        @BBCBreaking It's easy to condemn this behaviour as a civilian, but these men are soldiers authorised to kill enemy soldiers during a war.

        @BBCBreaking Whilst this type of action cannot be excused, I think it's important to recognise the extreme situations our troops are in!
