IDF Demolished kilometer-And-A-Half-Long Tunnel In southern Gaza's Khan Younis

 

 

A kilometer-and-a-half-long tunnel was recently demolished by combat engineers in southern Gaza's Khan Younis, the IDF says.

 

 

According to the military, inside the tunnel, troops found weapons and other equipment belonging to Hamas operatives, that would have enabled them to remain underground for long periods.

 

 

 

 

Hamas terror operatives fled the tunnel as troops of the 7th Armored Brigade approached the area, the IDF says. The 603rd Combat Engineering Battalion and elite Yahalom unit later demolished the tunnel

 

 

Other Hamas sites, both above and below ground, have been located in the Khan Younis area, the IDF says, including a facility found by the 603rd Battalion with dozens of rockets, launchers, and anti-tank projectiles.
