Israeli Video Shows The Webbed World of Hamas's Terror Tunnels Underneath Gaza
Hamas is a Palestinian militant group that controls the Gaza Strip, a small territory on the Mediterranean coast that is surrounded by Israel and Egypt. Israeli officials and military have accused Hamas of using a vast network of tunnels to smuggle weapons, launch attacks, and evade Israeli surveillance.
The Israeli government has conducted various operations to identify and destroy the tunnels, which it considers a major security threat. According to reports, the tunnels are often dug from within civilian areas, making it difficult for Israeli forces to detect and destroy them without causing harm to non-combatants.
In 2014, Israel launched a military operation against Hamas, specifically targeting the tunnels. The operation resulted in the destruction of many tunnels, but it caused significant damage and civilian casualties in Gaza. The issue of the tunnels remains a contentious one, and efforts to address it have been hindered by ongoing political and security challenges in the region.
