IDF destroys such a large Hezbollah tunnel it triggers earthquake alerts in Israel
NY Post ^ | 10/27/24 | Ronny Reyes

Posted on 10/27/2024 4:25:16 PM PDT by Libloather

The Israel Defense Forces blew up a 1.2 mile-long Hezbollah tunnel filled with weapons and supplies near the border, with the blast so powerful that it triggered earthquake alarms on Saturday.

The IDF said the tunnel was just one of several located in southern Lebanon that was being prepped for Hezbollah’s elite Radwan forces to one day invade Israel in an attack similar to the Oct. 7 massacre.

Inside the tunnels, Israeli troops found AK-47 rifles, explosives, rocket launchers, sniper rifles and anti-tank guided missiles and launchers.

The soldiers also found a massive stash of food, including canned goods, chocolates and even pickled olives — with enough goodies to feed more than 100 fighters, the IDF said.

The base had working electricity and plumbing, along with several bedrooms and bathrooms for the terrorists.

Officials said they discovered the tunnel during a 48-hour operation in southern Lebanon, where Israeli forces battled with Hezbollah fighters stationed near the tunnel system.

After killing off the terrorists – along with four other Hezbollah operatives at a nearby, smaller tunnel – the soldiers made their way inside the 1.2 mile-long underground base.

The tunnel was filled with Hezbollah’s booby traps and mines, with IDF troops successfully clearing them out so its forces could investigate.

The IDF then lined the tunnel system with about 400 tons of explosives and blew it up on Saturday, with the force so great that false-earthquake alarms were set off across northern Israel.

The massive seismic activity was detected across 284 communities in Israel and the West Bank, according to the Jerusalem Post.

I hope they grabbed as much loot as possible. Lots of Israelis could have used an AK47 on October 7th.

Sounds about right.

Gee, I hope there weren’t any hidden rooms in that tunnel system, where a bunch of Hezbollah freedom fighters were hiding, and they all got either blown to bits or buried alive. That could result in [egad!] *escalation*!

Gee... that sure WOULD be too bad if something like that we’re to happen.

It’ll be okay, there’s probably no water down there, and buried in rubble, it would be difficult to reach any, so, the problem will solve itself within a couple days.

I guess they weren't so secret.

Oh if only Israel laid down their arms and let themselves be slaughtered there would be peace in our times.

And now Israel has all those weapons and ammo. They don’t have to buy it from the US.

The United States should hire Mossad and the IDF to take care of the Mexico U.S. border... Something tells me that the Mexicans wouldn’t stand a chance. Illegal alien problem solved.

Said another way that’s 80% of a million tons. Keep going boys and girls, these ragheads won’t understand until there is none of them left.

Yup.

I’ve heard they are taking what they can use.

Why not? Might as well use it courtesy of your enemies.
