A week after a daring raid against ISIS that freed 70 Kurdish hostages and left an American special forces operator dead, NBC News has obtained what it says is body-cam footage from the assault.

NBC says it grabbed the video from a Jordanian news network:

The video, exclusively obtained by NBC News from Jordan-based news outlet Arab24, was apparently taken on helmet cameras at a prison near the northern town of Hawija. Arab24 said it received the video from Kurdish military officials.

In it, a barrage of gunfire is heard as what appear to be Delta Force and Kurdish soldiers hurry out a stream of prisoners through a badly damaged building. The two-minute video does not show the events that lead to the death of Master Sgt. Joshua Wheeler, the mission’s sole casualty.
