Sounds like Beirut. I think maybe my advantage is I can’t hear all this, can only read the captions, so the peripheral sounds aren’t so distracting.
Weapons suspects fired definitely long guns
A cell. Bad guys headed for safe house. Safe house probably already abandoned. Bad guys sacrificed. Cell exfils.
