US Air Force Member Sets Himself Ablaze in Daring Protest Against US Stance on Gaza Outside Israeli Embassy

On a quiet Sunday, an astonishing incident took place as a current member of the US Air Force intentionally set himself on fire outside the Israeli Embassy in Washington, D.C. This dramatic event attracted the attention of both local authorities and the international media.

 

Clad in military fatigues, the airman utilized the live-streaming platform Twitch to broadcast his intense act of dissent. Before dousing himself in a flammable liquid and setting himself ablaze, he identified himself as Aaron Bushwell, an active member of the US Air Force, and fervently expressed his refusal to be involved in what he characterized as genocide, passionately shouting "Free Palestine!" throughout the declaration.

 

On Sunday, 25-year-old Aaron Bushnell was urgently transported to the hospital with "critical life-threatening injuries," as stated by the fire department of the U.S. capital. The active duty airman allegedly expressed his unwillingness to be 'complicit in genocide' while setting himself on fire. He continued to yell "Free Palestine!" as he ignited and persisted until he eventually fell to the ground.

 

The police reported that an explosive ordnance disposal was called to the scene due to a suspicious vehicle potentially linked to the individual. Subsequently, it was confirmed that no hazardous materials were discovered. The local police are currently conducting further investigations, and the footage has been taken down from Twitch.

 

A bomb disposal unit was dispatched to the location due to concerns about a suspicious vehicle possibly linked to the individual. Subsequently, it was determined to be safe as no hazardous materials were discovered.
