Swiss TV has video of French Army helicopters firing without warning on an Ivory Coast demonstration, on November 6, 2004. The LGF reader who emailed this link included these remarks:

It’s a REALMEDIA video (23 seconds only). It’s from a Swiss TV (TSR.CH) news show from 30.11.2004.

You learn that the 6 .11.2004 french army helicopters shooted WITHOUT “warnings shots” on the crowd made of hundreds people.

——————

Here is a translation:

(speaking about 9.11.2004, Ivoiry hotel “massacre” )

“….However it’s wasn’t the first time French Army shooted without ”warning shots“ (shot in the air).

We are on November 6, three days before the shooting of the hotel ivory.

the demonstrators (manifestors) move towards the French military base. French helicopters shoot directly at the demonstrators.

There would have been sixty died at the time of these various operations.

Tonight, the French Army admits ”a score“ of about 20 deaths.

——————

This Swiss TV investigation is made by the same person who forced french army to acknoledge the ”9 november ivoiry hotel massacre”. (It’s based on differents witnesses, and some French TV Canal+ images)
