Surveillance video shows a man setting himself on fire outside the Israeli consulate in the US city of Boston, purportedly in protest of the regime’s genocidal war against the Palestinian people in Gaza.
The incident happened around 8:15 p.m. Wednesday, outside the Israeli consulate which is across from the Four Seasons hotel in downtown Boston.
There was a large police presence as investigators collected evidence and searched cars in the area on Thursday.
Witnesses described the scene as deeply upsetting. The person was taken to a local hospital for severe burns, but his current condition is unknown.
The person’s identity, motives, and condition are currently unknown. But his action is reminiscent of Aaron Bushnell, who self-immolated in front of the Israeli Embassy in Washington, DC in February 2024 to protest the ongoing genocide in Gaza.

They mentioned a woman also self immolated back in December? I didn’t even know about her action! Bushnell being active service and live streaming made it very hard for the major outlets not talk about it (though we did see how much they tried). Nothing but the greatest respect to all martyrs and those currently fighting and surviving!
