Israel's military says soldiers heard in video footage cheering as a Palestinian is shot during Gaza border clashes will be disciplined.
It said Tuesday an initial probe shows the video was taken in December during "violent riots."
The footage emerged Monday appearing to show a soldier shooting a Palestinian near the Gaza fence as other soldiers are heard cheering when he falls. The military said the man was a main instigator in the clashes and was shot in the leg and wounded.
It said the troops' behavior does not reflect the army's values and they will be dealt with "accordingly," without elaborating.
The Palestinian group Hamas that rules Gaza is currently leading a campaign of mass protests at the border and at least 26 Palestinians have been killed since it began two weeks ago.
