The Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) released a video showing what it describes as one of Hamas’s "most complex" underground infrastructures extending beneath the southern Gaza city of Rafah.
According to the IDF, the seven-kilometer-long "root tunnel" runs roughly 25 meters underground, contains about 80 rooms and was used for command operations, weapons storage and sheltering Hamas operatives.
The video shared on X on Nov. 20 travels through reinforced concrete passageways and large chambers, showing the sophistication and scale of Hamas’s underground network.
The Israeli military claims the tunnel originated beneath a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) compound and stretched beneath civilian sites.
"IDF troops uncovered one of Gaza’s largest and most complex underground routes, over 7 km long, ~25 meters deep, with ~80 hideouts, where abducted IDF officer Lt. Hadar Goldin was held," the post read.
Israeli analysts say the demolition of this tunnel marks a strategic blow to Hamas and "paves the path to its defeat."
"The destruction of this tunnel as well as many others like it or similar… as well as other terror facilities pushes Hamas to the edge," said Professor Kobi Michael, senior researcher at the Institute for National Security Studies (INSS) and the Misgav Institute.

Everyone involved with Hamas there and HERE should be tried for murder and executed. No exceptions.
The Economist says there is about 7,000 tons of unexploded bombs in Gaza.
“over 7 km long, ~25 meters deep, with ~80 hideouts...’The destruction of this tunnel as well as many others like it’”
No surprise there.
“...the tunnel originated beneath a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) compound and stretched beneath civilian sites”.
So...the UN is aiding and abetting murder, terror, rape, beheadings, torture, war and violence?????? Kick them out of New York.
Why destroy it occupy it.
Turn it into ones own infrastructure.
.
“The Israeli military claims the tunnel originated beneath a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) compound and stretched beneath civilian sites.”
Way past time for the UN to be disbanded....their “peacekeepers” steal/rape/loot and abet the terrorists at every turn..
😳. Almost like the un was complicit. 😠
“The Israeli military claims the tunnel originated beneath a United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA) compound”
That is very serious and requires massive punishment for the UN like Jesse Helms would have. Probably disbanding the entire agency and demanding an Elon Doge style audit.
“The Israeli military claims...” Maybe the IDF needs to take these journalists on a little tour.
THE UN CANNOT BE TRUSTED ABOUT ANYTHING, IMO.
