Another leaked clip published earlier today showed a tank ramming into another sign at the entrance to the crossing in eastern Rafah.

• The IDF issued its own footage of the capture of the crossing by the 401st Armored Brigade.

The military has previously said that it investigates incidents that deviate from IDF soldiers’ orders and expected values, as well as reports of videos uploaded to social networks.

IDF Spokesperson Adm. Daniel Hagari also put out a statement several months ago calling on soldiers not to film themselves if the documentation does not serve an operational purpose, saying such actions violate the military’s commands.
