Israel claims discovery of a giant tunnel network
Earlier, the Israeli army announced the unveiling of what they described as a giant tunnel network managed by Mohammed al-Sinwar, the brother of Hamas leader Yahya al-Sinwar, in the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli military alleged that the tunnel extends, in part, for 4 kilometers from the Jabalia area in the northern part of the Strip, reaching a distance of 400 meters from the Beit Hanoun crossing (Erez Crossing) to the north.
The Israeli army stated that the special “Yahalom” unit of the infantry and engineering forces in the Gaza military division conducted exploratory operations, enabling them to discover approximately four kilometers of the tunnel’s path at a depth of 50 meters.
The Israeli military published photos of Defense Minister Yuav Galant inspecting the tunnel, which was revealed, accompanied by military leaders. These are the scenes broadcasted by the Al-Qassam Brigades in their video.”
