Hope the Israelis blew it up with a full work detail inside it.

love how they let the construction proceed before they destroyed it. It kept the evil bastards busy for awhile.

Tunnels are also a problem on the southern border of the US so a little collaboration might be in order.

Excellent... Israel is finally using terahertz ground scanners! My supposition.

Footnote: the destruction of that tunnel killed the workers inside - Hamas forced child laborers and their adult supervisors.

“...a new system involving combat units, military intelligence, logistics and research had been used to destroy the tunnel.”

Translation: Superior know-how, tactics and technology.

continued to monitor construction efforts by Hamas militants before demolishing it...

OK!

Tell us what you did, in military detail, so we can take out the tunnel builders invading us.

... said the tunnel began in the central Gazan town of Khan Younis and stretched for over a kilometer (half a mile)

1 / 2 miles = 0.804672 kilometers. Article doesn't even give a good estimate

Back on topic, only destroy the tunnels when they've been fully fitted and manned. Keep 'em wasting money and manpower.

I think the days of tunneling into Israel are over.

Broder picture here. Hamas tunneling was also rolled up by Al-Sisi. ISIS gone in Iraq, and now it looks like Russia is trying to clean up their remains in Syria. I read after the Cruz Missile strike, it was either Hezbollah or Hamas retreated from the Golan heights. N otice A pattern here? Add to that PDJT’s denoting we will move the embassy. ALL of this is an effort to role up the bad actors and to make the PA stand on their own powerless of their supporting thugs and Iranian money as PDJT truly goes for a peace deal as he and Israel negotiate from a position of strength. No I am not tired of winning!

The Palestinians are building these tunnels to murder Israeli women and children, not to fight a war. They cannot exist peacefully.

"stretched for over a kilometer (half a mile) across the border and into Israel"

Closer to 2/3 of a mile.

Psyops. When your enemy is uncertain on the effectiveness of their tactics.

Not taking immediate action on the tunnel construction makes enemy leaders uncertain.

"Hamas’ military wing issued a statement earlier Sunday threatening Israel with a 'heavy price.'

'Our battle for Jerusalem is going on round the clock, above and under the ground,' the statement said.
"

Persistent rodents, driven by a compulsion that they cannot understand or control. It's wondrous to see the more ostensible manifestation of the hatred increasingly affecting much of the world population and pulling it along.

Tunnels and bunkers a great to hide in, but once discovered they are indefensible death traps.
