This article relates to the story because they are both about murdering of one's own family members. In the article, a young boy accidentally kills his own father and this could be related to the text because in the text the sniper didn't know that he was trying to kill his own brother, making the murder of his brother "accidental" since that was not his intention. At the same time, these two texts are also relatively different. In the newspaper, the boy actually intended to point a shotgun at his own father when the shotgun fired by accident, therefor the boy was sort of "asking for it" to happen (there is also no proof that the boy was telling the truth). In the story though, the brother definitely had no intentions of killing his brother. Also the setting for for both texts are very different, as the setting in the story is at night in the middle of a war, and the sniper had no choice but to shoot the enemy since it was do-or-die. Where as in the article, the boy was being foolish by threatening his father with a shotgun when he had the choice of not to.
