GoPro footage released by the Israeli Defense Force shows members of the 6551st Reserve Battalion conducting close quarters battle drills inside of Palestinian homes. The footage recorded in December with no definitive release date attached to it during combat operations in Jabalia.

It's interesting to note the disparity in training between individual reservist troops here. The lead Soldier wearing the GoPro appears to have considerably more experience with these types of operations than some of the troops in his team. While he continuously uses the geometry of the building and angles to keep himself protected, you can see some of his teammates stopping and posting up directly in the center of a doorway as the team tries to maneuver past him.
