A video showing Israel soldiers breaking into a dance while on duty in the West Bank has gone viral in Israel.

The video shows the soldiers stopping a patrol in the West Bank to dance to American electro-pop singer Kesha's hit "Tik Tok."

It was originally removed from YouTube, but has since reappeared. But Israeli TV stations, including Channel 2 and Channel 10, picked it up and showed it repeatedly on Monday.

The YouTube user who posted it identified the dancers as Israeli infantrymen in the Palestinian city of Hebron.

The military called the video a "stunt" and said the troops' commanders have been informed.
