The Israeli army is investigating a video posted by its own soldiers showing the explosion of the tank which constitutes a violation of international law, according to the Haaretz newspaper.
The suspected crime was carried out by the soldiers of the 401st Brigade last week with the approval of the brigade’s commanders, the report said.
It said one of the soldiers uploaded a recording of the explosion to social media, alongside the caption: “Destruction of the Tal as-Sultan water reservoir in honour of Shabbat,” in reference to Saturday, the Jewish day of rest.
The initial probe will determine whether the Investigating Military Police (MIP) needs to investigate the case, the Israeli newspaper said.
