Tunnel

IDF soldiers destroyed a two-kilometer-long terror tunnel in northern Gaza as part of ongoing operations to dismantle Hamas infrastructure, the military said.

IDF forces also located approximately 10 mortar bombs hidden inside a children’s blanket in a residential building in the Beit Hanoun area.

Ex-hostage Segev Kalfon calls out Israel’s lack of support since his release, sharing his harrowing experiences of captivity, violence, and the emotional toll faced in captivity in a KAN interview.

The tunnel stretched approximately seven to ten kilometers, leading to dozens of living quarters and Hamas command posts.

Mediators conveyed the offer, which included a clause permitting return to Gaza if the terrorists disarm, to Hamas leaders, but received no answer, N12 reported.

Reporter's Notebook: The 'Post' visits Rafah, where the status of 200 Hamas fighters has shaken the Gaza ceasefire, and the wider region.

Terrorists attempting to flee through underground tunnels were captured or eliminated as Hamas delays return of hostage remains and continue to issue threats regarding ceasefire.

The route runs beneath a dense residential area near the Philadelphi Corridor and continues under sensitive civilian sites, including a UNRWA compound, mosques, clinics, kindergartens, and schools.

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

According to the report, this is the main reason why the IDF and Israel's leadership have refrained from striking that position.
