The Israeli army has shared images of a tunnel that would stretch 4 kilometers under Gaza. She would have found electrical cables, pipes and sewers there.

The Israeli army presented images of the tunnel which it describes as the largest and longest ever discovered in Palestinian territory. We see several tunnels there, where it is possible to move upright. The floor is clay, the walls are concrete. The tunnel is wide enough for small vehicles to pass through.

The labyrinth, 50 meters underground, would extend over four kilometers with electrical cables, pipes, sewers or, still according to the Israeli army, communication networks and ventilation. “It is the flagship project of Hamas leader Sinouar, who made this tunnel to carry out a terrorist attack in Israel”, comments Daniel Hagari, IDF spokesperson. The tunnel, located in the north of the Gaza Strip, opens 400 meters from the Erez crossing, the border crossing with Israel.
