Newly released video footage shows Palestinian activist Awdah Hathaleen filming his own death after being shot by Israeli settler Yinon Levi in the West Bank. The footage, released by B'Tselem, contradicts Levi's claim of self-defense. Levi, previously sanctioned by the UK and EU for violence against Palestinians, was briefly arrested but quickly released. Hathaleen, an English teacher involved in the Oscar-winning documentary 'No Other Land', was documenting settler activity when he was killed. The incident sparked international outrage and highlights the lenient treatment of Israelis who kill Palestinians in Israeli courts.
