In this mirror live Stream around 2:25 an isreali Merkava tank is spotted moving onto Gaza. Can you guys help me geolocate where it came from and where it is going?

The camera is recording from Sderot, right?

#

Twin buildings on the top right look like 31.534772619905542, 34.56257589191551

#

However the tree line looks like it's on the Israeli side, but I cannot tell just like that as I am looking at what's on Google Earth/Maps which is from July last year, so it's much drier there

#

But if that's the case, I'd say the tank is in the Israeli side

so possibly rather a border patrol?

That would be the logical conclusion assuming all I'm saying is correct

#

Honestly I'd welcome a second opinion, especially from someone more versed in I/P than me

#

But for what I can look in a moment, that would be my bet

#

okay lets wait a bit maybe someone else can add more input. What you have pointed out does make a lot of sense though

Camera lensing can be very deceiving with how far things are in a single image, so it's perfectly plausible that two objects that look close are actually easily hundreds of meters away

#

true, considering this angle in addition to the twin buildings you pointed out I believe I have a hill at 31.535428, 34.573747 inbetween a synagogue and those two that could be the rough location of the camera

#

when the camera man turned towards the tank you can see these little structures which is what im trying to find on the hill right now.

At about 01:23 local time someone dismounted the camera and panned around. I could see then that they were under a high voltage transmission line. There were some other features that I noticed that would probably be helpful as well, but it was too late for me to start a geolocation at the time.

Does this still need figuring out? If so, I can give it a try.

#

yes, it would still be very nice to get some more info/ verification
