Hamas tunnel network – Why the war against Israel is also raging underground

Date:

Dramatic images of suffering, death and destruction accompany the war in Israel. But the conflict in the Middle East, which is constantly bubbling and erupting, also rages invisibly underground. We delve into the tunnels in the Gaza Strip, which serve Hamas for terror and kidnapping, and others simply use as a lifeline.

Some have only sparse security and are so narrow that someone can just squeeze through. Others are fortified with thick concrete walls and even allow motor vehicles to pass through. It is estimated that there are more than a thousand tunnels, on average several tens of meters to more than a kilometer long, that have been dug by smugglers under the Gaza Strip, especially since 1994.
