Description
The first ever trial of a former British soldier accused of murdering victims of the 1972 Bloody Sunday massacre in Derry opens in Belfast, in a landmark moment in Northern Ireland's conflict-scarred recent history. The ex-paratrooper -- identified only as "Soldier F" -- faces two murder and five attempted murder charges over the atrocity that saw 14 unarmed Catholic civilians, who had been protesting internment without trial, killed by British soldiers, one of the most significant events in the three decades-long "Troubles" that plagued Northern Ireland.
