An officer filmed ordering a soldier to abuse a bound and blindfolded Palestinian prisoner was indicted Thursday and has resigned his command of an army battalion but will continue to serve elsewhere, the Israeli military said.

Lt. Col. Omri Borberg and the soldier were charged in a military court with “unworthy conduct” in the July 7 incident, the military said. Borberg asked to be removed from his post.
