Deadly tank accident due to excessive speed

The IDF investigation of the Monday tank accident -- which killed one soldier and injured three ? initially suggests that the cause of the accident was speeding while making a sharp left turn.

IDF forces expect that further investigation will reveal a more definitive conclusion, since the tank, which is the newest model on the market, boasts advanced equipment that will indicate the precise cause of the accident.

Sources say they are also investigating the possibility that the battalion took part in speeding games.
