"Open fire towards". Could we perhaps dilute this language some more? We don't know they opened fire. "Objects moved away from them at speed for unknown reasons" perhaps?

"They encircled us and started firing directly at us", quoting a witness within the article has a slightly different vibe.

I just received a contract on Docusign for review and signing, and it offered to give me an AI-generated summary that I could read instead to save time.

That's AN AI-GENERATED SUMMARY ***OF A CONTRACT***, in case you need to let that sink in.
