In the video released by the Egyptian Ministry of Defence, the tank spotted the car racing towards a military checkpoint in North Sinai.

It then proceeded to run the car over, which contained four gunmen and 100kg of explosives, while civilians could be seen fleeing for cover.

Tragically seven civilians died from the blast, but had it not been for the tank crew, the death toll could have been much higher.
