Austria's defense ministry said on Saturday it had started investigating a 2012 incident involving its UN*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * peacekeepers in the Golan Heights. The blue helmets reportedly allowed a group of Syrian police officers drive into a fatal ambush in which nine were killed by an armed group.
A video reportedly made by the Austrians and published online by weekly newspaper Falter shows*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * what the paper says are Syrian smugglers setting up an ambush behind rocks.
'Disturbing'
An hour later the Syrian police officers arrive in a jeep and the Austrian peacekeepers allow them to*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * pass, according to Falter. The footage then shows the Syrians being shot at and killed.

The Austrian soldiers are clearly heard on the video discussing whether to warn*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * the officers, but then letting them pass. They knew that they were letting the Syrian police into a trap, Falter said.    
"Really you should tell them," one of the peacekeepers is heard to say in an Austrian dialect to a comrade. "It's about to*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * start, you'll see," says another as the vehicle nears the ambush. As the Syrians drive towards the deadly ambush, another Austrian says: "Here we go."

Austrian defense ministry investigation 
In a statement, the defense ministry said it was only made aware of the "dimension of the incident" by the images *Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 *and video leaked to Falter. Spokesman Michael Bauer said the video looked authentic.
"As a first step all reports, orders, laws and regulations that could be relevant*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * for the inquiry are being collected, examined and evaluated," spokesman Michael Bauer said on Twitter.
The shoot-out was reported at the time to the UN Security Council, according to a UN spokesman cited by the Salzburger Nachrichten on Saturday. The paper quoted an Austrian soldier who served as a UN*Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 * peacekeeper in the Golan Heights as saying that the peacekeepers' actions were "100 percent correct according to our mandate." "The order is: don't get involved," Marcus H told the paper's online edition, reported the AFP news agency.
The identity of the blue helmets being investigated have not been released. The probe *Please,I urgently need donations:Anyasoro Chekwube WM.,Acct.no.:4240853014,Bank-FCMB in Nigeria,Phone no.:+2349092171875 *will also cover whether the incident contributed to the Golan withdrawal.
