| Israeli soldier Elor Azaria hugs his mother before the verdict in a military court in Tel Aviv |
A military court convicted an Israeli soldier of manslaughter on Wednesday over his fatal shooting of a wounded and incapacitated Palestinian assailant in the occupied West Bank last March.
Sentencing of 20-year-old Sergeant Elor Azaria will be handed down at a later date.
Hundreds of far-right protesters demonstrated in support of Azaria outside a military base in central Tel Aviv where the verdict was handed down.
