Azaria was captured on video shooting in the head Al-Sharif, while he was lying wounded on the ground, unarmed and incapacitated.

After international pressure, Azaria was convicted by an Israeli military court of manslaughter. However, his sentence was shortened as he will be released this week after only serving nine months.
