JERUSALEM — A group of Israeli soldiers danced up a storm of criticism after they were filmed boogieing alongside Palestinians while on patrol in the West Bank.
The soldiers were making the rounds in the city of Hebron when they entered a dance hall and joined dozens of Palestinian men dancing to the hit “Gangnam Style”. The Israeli military today (Aug 29) said it considers the incident “serious”, adding that “the soldiers exposed themselves to unnecessary danger and were disciplined accordingly”, without elaborating.
Footage aired on Israeli Channel 2 TV shows the solders in uniform, flak jackets and carrying guns. One was shown hoisted on the shoulders of Palestinian dancers. Other soldiers joined hands and grooved with the partygoers. The channel said the incident occurred on Monday.
