Why not use burnt 🔥 tires 🛞 and throw it in the tunnels.

I read somewhere that some tunnels were constructed in such a way that they would drain out towards the sea. Not sure if true or not

But burning 🔥 tires 🛞 would be delicious

“It will ruin any ground water for centuries.”

latter day version of salting the earth ... however, lots of documentation that the tunnels are lined with formed concrete, so the salt water would be contained ... plus, how much ground water is there in that region, anyway?

Leaked audio of heated meeting reveals released hostages’ fury at Netanyahu
Former hostage says Israelis still held in Hamas Tunnels Netanyahu is flooding

By Irene Nasser, Tim Lister and Richard Greene, CNN.com, Wed December 6, 2023

CNN — Leaked audio recordings of a meeting between freed Israeli hostages and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu have revealed considerable anger at the government’s conduct, as well as the enduring terror of captivity by Hamas in Gaza.

Audio of the meeting between the former hostages, relatives of some still being held, and Israel’s war cabinet on Tuesday was leaked, with parts of it published on Israeli news site ynet.

It comes amid building pressure on Netanyahu to secure the release of the remaining captives, and scrutiny of Israel’s intensifying military campaign in Gaza.

Ynet also reported that Netanyahu’s efforts to respond to the hostages and relatives were met with tense and angry remarks.

A female abductee freed with her children – but without her husband, who remains in captivity – is heard saying: “The feeling we had was that no one was doing anything for us. The fact is that I was in a hiding place that was shelled and we had to be smuggled out and we were wounded. That’s besides the helicopter that shot at us on the way to Gaza.”

She adds: “You say you have no information. You have no information. The fact that we were shelled, the fact that no one knew anything about where we were… You claim that there is Israeli intelligence. But the fact is that we are being shelled. My husband was separated from us three days before we returned to Israel and taken to the [Hamas] tunnels” under Gaza.

Israel has launched intense air bombardments on Gaza since Hamas’ October 7 attacks on the country, which resulted in the capture of more than 240 people. The conflict has resulted in a humanitarian crisis in Gaza, and led to the deaths of more than 15,000 Palestinians, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health in Ramallah, which cites sources from the Hamas-controlled enclave.

“And you want to topple the Hamas government, to show that you have bigger balls? There is no life here that is more important than others,” a hostage adds. “None of us there deserve any less treatment than any resident of Israel. Return them all....not in a month, two months or a year.”

Referring to reports that the Israeli military is considering flooding Hamas tunnels in Gaza, she continues: “And you are talking about washing the tunnels with sea water? You are shelling the route of tunnels in the exact area where they are. “

hogwash ... it’ll take days to even partially fill those tunnels, and even if its just hours, there’s plenty of time to evacuate ... besides, just half filling the tunnels renders them unusable ...

“As the tunnels are filled, the walls will collapse, and the ground above will fill them.”

I doubt the walls will collapse. The ceilings are rounded. So they’ll probably be like the Roman cisterns. Will just be tunnels full of water. Some may collapse if they’ve been compromised somewhere by bombs etc.

I predict that MANY buildings will sink into the ground——But HAMAS started ALL of this.

NOT a SHRED of SYMPATHY from me.

Gaza is underlain by sandstone and shale formations. There is also a layer of loess in the region which would presumably become very soggy when wet. They might not be able to fill the tunnels but they could make them at least an unusable sea of mud. I also presume the Israelis know the geology of the area and don’t need our help to figure it out.

Reading the comments, I don’t believe that many understand the nature of this operation. It’s not merely a process of hoses and seawater to flush rats, it’s a dangerous extermination operation that still requires IDF to infiltrate many areas of the tunnels, shoot rats - if any, set explosives near entrances, and drill and drop explosive chemical foam bombs. These bombs will block, or mostly block, egress through certain key passages, as an effort to trap the scum and drown them while also controlling the flood. Many Hamas will be entombed in the lowest level chambers, which I think are hatched - but unsure how water tight they are. Horrors are coming for the cockroaches.

Glad you made it! I was trapped in a river rapids "washing machine". Interesting experience as I was being drowned and tumbled, eyeing the surface from five feet below. It was oddly peaceful as adrenaline must have been kicking in. My first thought was "Wow... So this is how I die. OK!"

Well, why not just pump it back into the sea when the job is completed?
Hiroshima had a nuke dropped on it, and that didn’t take centuries to revitalize. h
Hard to believe, (if pumped back out to the sea), that this would be a centuries long problem.
Maybe centuries is a bit dramatic?

When I was living in the Middle East there was no ground water to speak of. We had tanks on top of our that were filled every couple of days for showers etc.. Never drink it unless you needed to purge for a colonoscopy. If you look at the buildings in Gaza videos they have those tanks on top of the buildings. Israel and Saudi both purify Sea water for use.

They should have ended the tunnels years ago by whatever means.
