The tunnel-boring machines used in the construction had been smuggled into the Strip.
Israel has not found the tunneling machines yet.
The massive underground network is 50 meters deep in some places and wide enough for vehicles. There is footage from Strip showing terror group building passages with tunnel-boring machines.
The IDF has also carried out a successful trial of pumping seawater into the vast network of tunnels beneath Gaza, a move aimed at destroying the Palestinian terror group’s subterranean network of passages and hideaways and at driving its operatives above ground.

I so wish this had not happened in my time. It is agonising.
I see so many people utterly convinced of their perspective, unmovable, unshakable . . . on both sides.
We need new types of Global Law. Which cannot be circumnavigated as with the UN. The five seat Security Council must fall.
So people who live in a prison were capable of smuggling in a boring machine large enough to make a large tunnel. These prisoners had the resources like rebar and concrete to reinforce the dig ,they are amazing. More probable the guards had that tunnel to access targets within the prison no one the wiser. When it was uncovered by a bomb well propaganda.
How can you so accurately state how this case gives the entire narrative that the Gaza Strip is a ‘Prison’ the lie, and then conclude that ‘The narrative is true: the _evidence_ must be a fraud!’?
Israel. Are. Not. Jailers. And Hamas are not victims. And the latter have made it clear that wiping them out permanently is a necessity for Israel, regardless of the kind of war that Hamas has worked to ensure such an effort will demand.
Do you know anything at all about Israel or Gaza? Why are you commenting such utter stupidities?
This begs the obvious question: how many companies in the world are capable of actually building a tunnel-boring machine of this size? I don’t think it would be that hard to track down where the machine was manufactured and who sold it to Hamas.
If I were that company, I would be very nervous about retribution from the IDF. The IDF is very creative when dealing with its enemies…
Brian, thank you for your unbiased coverage of the war in Gaza. While most media outlets are covering the ‘Palestinian Crisis’, the ‘Hamas-Controlled Gazan Health Ministry’ death count, and could care less about what’s actually happening on the ground, you just present the facts as they are. Thank you.
your welcome
