i'll de xena has exclusively obtained an image of the bullet that fatally wounded alcholay shooting. abo outlet, the palestinian american, was shot in the head by his very forces while on assignment last month i said, bake reports. the remains of the bullet that kill journalists, sharina ob lackley. this image is been broadcast for the 1st time and shows a type of ammunition used to kill the veteran al jazeera journalist in the occupied westbank last month. according to experts, the green tip bullet is capable of piercing armor and is used in a m full rifle. when we simulated the green tip bullets using 3 d models and according to ballistic and forensic experts, the mission that ended sharon's life was a 5.56 millimeter caliber. the bullet was 1st designed and manufactured in the united states. according to the palestinian prosecutor's office and the autopsy report, the bullet entered, the lower part of shearing her, ricocheted off her helmet and lodged itself in her head. i think another
8:03 am
interesting fact, fact who has to be brought into consideration is the fact that there are a number of strike marks on the tree next to which terrain was standing. and that indicates to me that the, there was not, she didn't die as a result of a random shot. as a result that was going on at the moment. the fact that there were a number of rounds that struck that tray. and that she was also hit that indicate that she it looks very much like she was being targeted time. we have used 3 d models to identify the types of weapons israeli soldiers were using. in this video . we found it was a m for rifle. the type of gun that uses 5.56 caliber bullets open source data supports the fact the israeli special unit accused of shooting sharing uses this type of weapon used in a non combat situation. fight by the israeli army. clearly identifiable journalist

8:06 am
that have to be cut off the media. that could be one way of getting out from under this kind of long standing support for impunity. there's other things that the united states can in the what the, by the administration in my view should do. they could invoke the la he act, they could investigate the question of u. s. weapons. they could also announced that they will no longer carry out the policy of attacking and isolating. and in the, in the trump years actually imposing sanctions on the international criminal court is being reported that an israeli police investigation has found its officers engaged in misconduct during sharina, barclays funeral procession. that's according to the hot it's newspaper which also says, supervising commanders won't be seriously punished, riots police pushed and beat mourners, causing paul bears. thomas dropped the casket. 100 says the internal investigation found that while it was suitable for officers to use force,
