English translation:

I’m private Manaf Ahmad Mana’a recruited in the Fourth Brigade my specialization is tanks here’s my leave permit proving that I work for the 4th brigade and this is my weapon license (machine gun) also showing that I work for the 4th brigade. Since the beginning of the unrest, our ‘political orientation’ classes focused on telling us that we have armed gangs funded from overseas from Bandar Bin Sultan , Saad Hariri and Abdulhalim Khaddam. Our first deployment was in Darayya. We were deployed on checkpoints to prevent people from protesting and arrest those who do. Afterwards we were taken to Abbasyeen Stadium. Around 2,000 soldiers were in that stadium. We were deployed as guards around the Abbasyeen square so that protesters cannot access the square. At that point, they took away our military IDs and gave us police IDs instead (he shows it to the camera) so that the AL delegation would not recognize that we were military personnel but take us to be policemen and riot police. Afterwards on a Friday morning we were taken to the security branch in Kafr Souseh. We were waiting to receive commands for our next mission when we heard an explosion around 11:00. When we went to check out the scene, we saw many bodies but which were obviously long dead. The bodies showed signs of swelling and smelled bad showing they weren’t killed just then in that explosion. The officers then called us and took us in buses back to our military camps.
