NNN - he clearly yells "FREE PALESTINE" in the video. The USAF soldier has been IDed as Aaron Bushnell, confirmed to have succumbed to his injuries. Confirmed by many news outlets that this video was in fact taken in front of the Israeli embassy in D.C. https://amp.cnn.com/cnn/2024/02/25/politics/man-sets-himself-on-fire-israeli-embassy-washington-dc/index.html https://m.economictimes.com/news/defence/who-is-aaron-bushnell-us-air-force-member-sets-himself-on-fire-outside-israeli-embassy-in-washington/articleshow/107994857.cms https://www.timesnownews.com/world/us/us-news/who-is-aaron-bushnell-soldier-who-set-himself-on-fire-outside-israeli-embassy-in-washington-dc-article-107994481/amp
