Can someone explain?

Video shows a guy with black hair in orange hivis taking down a flag in a demolished area.

Photo is of a bald guy with a white beard wearing the same or similar hivis jacket.

Title says human shield but I don't get it?

They are forcing a Palastinian man to go out of cover to take down a flag. In case that flag was booby trapped or this was an ambush, the civilian would die. If he refuses, he gets shot (note the LMGs). This is textbook Human shield tactics

That's so sad :(

I think it is because of this viral video from last year in the West Bank:

Not sure if it is real or fake.
