Watch as a United States Air Force member sets himself on fire in a suicide attempt
Active duty US Air Force soldier Aaron Bushnell, 25, set himself on fire at the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC, on February 25, 2024. Aaron was burned alive and died within seconds.
Aaron was in uniform when he decided to protest the alleged genocide in Gaza, regarding the war. Israel invaded Gaza in a full scale war in retaliation for Gaza attacking Israel first.
Aaron went to the Israeli Embassy in Washington D.C. stating his intentions and recording himself. At the embassy Aaron poured a flammable liquid over his body and then put his military service hat on.
Aaron then set himself on fire with a lighter and immediately began yelling “free Palestine”
Flames quickly incinerated the entire body of Aaron, burning the clothes off his body. Military personnel were feet away from the fire show and approached Aaron with fire extinguishers, spraying him.
But the fire had already killed Aaron and forced his burnt chared body to the ground.
Aaron’s bones were burnt to the point that they were black. Police are working with the US Secret Service and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives to investigate the incident.
