Attack Tunnels

"When you see a hole in the ground next to the fence, you instinctively think of Hezbollah tunnels. This kind of anxiety doesn’t fade easily," a Shlomi resident commented.

Thousands of structures served as weapons storage facilities and command centers. Armed terrorists operated from inside an elementary school, and the tunnel network ran under civilian homes.

National Security researcher Kobi Michael: ‘Hamas is trying to insert a new deal into an existing deal, and this is something Israel must reject.’

Over 60 terrorists organized into 10 terror cells were arrested by security forces, with most being released prisoners. 

The scope and severity of these atrocities spread daily. The hatred that never truly disappeared has returned, as if history insists on repeating itself.

While operating in the area, soldiers from the Shaldag Unit identified several tunnel shafts leading to the compound, which led to the exposure of the full tunnel. 

Intelligence officials clearly identified Hezbollah's complex tunnel system built 800 meters from the border, which, at the peak of the fighting, housed around 1,000 Hezbollah operatives.

Until last week, when the IDF uncovered the tunnel, this home would have been the launching pad for an October 7-style attack against Israel.

The tunnels contained weapons, command centers, combat packs, and living quarters equipped with showers, a kitchen, and food stockpiles.

The IDF dismantled a one-kilometer Hamas terror tunnel in Rafah, Gaza, eliminating terrorists emerging from the tunnel shaft.
