which picture source above corroborates this witness story?
○ a source a
○ b source b
The witness describes people striking guns and yelling "fire" without clear military orders. Source B shows a more chaotic scene with people interacting closely with soldiers (like striking guns), aligning with the witness's account. Source A has a more orderly - lined - up soldier formation which doesn't match the witness's description of a more spontaneous, people - incited situation.
