It's not a question of "instigation", it's a question of transitioning from offensive words to violence, plus the actual issuing of death threats.

Unless you think the UNICEF people (all of whom are smaller in stature) started the violence, this guy is the one who started the violence which in a normal society is the kind of things that criminals do. Him chosing death threats (literally "I'll kill you!") rather than non-deadly threats is also highly abnormal (well, maybe not in his society) in that is far more extreme than even a common violent drunk would do (at least here in Europe).

In your group effort to excuse the actions of this guys, you just come out as desperatelly trying to hammer a square peg into a round hole.
