The Israeli army was surprised by the tunnels of Hamas; Assessments are messed up

The Israeli army is stunned when faced with the Hamas tunnel network in Gaza; Tunnels whose extent is hundreds of times more than what was thought.

The international group of Fars news agency, the sources of the Israeli army express their astonishment in the conversation with the media of this regime regarding the volume, length, depth and complexity of the tunnels of the forces of Izz al-Din al-Qassam (the military branch of Hamas); They openly say that the previous ideas of the Israeli army are widely mistaken.

Yediot Aharonot newspaper wrote that the Israeli army was surprised by the size of the tunnel network of the Palestinian resistance in Gaza; Israeli military sources have told this newspaper that the extent of Hamas tunnels seems to be hundreds of times larger than expected. Having spent decades digging tunnels throughout the area under its influence, it will undoubtedly be a crazy situation for the attackers. The same tunnels that in Vietnam forced the armed American army to accept failure after 8 years and throw them out of Vietnam. The “Ko Chi Ho Chi Minh” tunnels in Vietnam were dug to a depth of 20 meters and had good basic facilities, but they are undoubtedly considered very basic compared to the tunnels dug by Hamas in Gaza.


A view of the tunnels dug by the Viet Cong

On December 17 (Azar 26), the Israeli army discovered a four-kilometer long tunnel in the north of Gaza overlooking the surrounding Zionist settlements. Gaza reported and described it as the largest tunnel it has discovered so far. This tunnel has several branches and connections along with plumbing, electricity and communication lines, and in some areas it goes down to a depth of 50 meters underground and it was wide enough. that vehicles can move inside it.

The Israeli army announced this discovery to the media with a lot of noise, but the Hebrew network Wenet wrote that the existence of such a tunnel is also a few meters from Israeli settlements. It shows the extreme negligence of the security institutions regarding Hamas’s tunnel construction, as one of the mouths of this tunnel is located a few meters away from the houses of Nativ Hetara town and a short distance from the Ayers military base.

 

On the other hand, Izzedin al-Qassam said to the Israeli army: “You arrived late, the mission is accomplished!”.

During the first days of the army’s ground entry into Gaza, the Israeli media quoted officials and sources of this regime and wrote that estimates show that the volume of Hamas tunnels is 100 to 200 kilometers; Even until 2020, there was no information that Hamas tunnels were extended to the settlements; But now the IDF is faced with the frightening reality that it has no idea how large the tunnels are. They entered the battle with all kinds of advanced equipment and weapons, and at the same time, they bombarded the streets heavily and extensively in order to destroy the tunnel network, in such a way that in many cases, an entire street with all its houses was razed to the ground.

But regarding tunnels, it has different types and uses; Some of them are for weapons and logistics, some are for relief, some are for attack and defense, and some are headquarters, but no one knows about their number and size and how far they will continue.

Some of these tunnels go to a depth of 30 meters and 60 meters, and in some cases there are multi-story tunnels that have been built and equipped with many equipments to the extent that some consider them to be the new generation of tunnels. Some are actually not tunnels, they are holes that were dug to deceive the Israeli soldiers and bombs were placed inside them or Palestinian forces were ambushed inside them, so that a large part of the casualties of the occupying army are due to the soldiers entering these holes.

An Israeli officer also told the New York Times yesterday that he oversaw the destruction of 50 tunnels in the Beit Hanoun area, which he said had all been bombed in different ways.

 

In this regard, the Economist wrote in a report on Sunday that Tel Aviv believed that these tunnels have a width of several hundred kilometers; But Israeli security officials have recently announced that Hamas’ underground network is more extensive than this. Three months have passed since the start of the war and 24,000 Palestinians were killed, the Israeli army admits that there is still a lot of time left to destroy even half of this underground network.

This publication, dozens of Hamas members are now in guerilla fighting mode, and the Israeli army must often carry out its operations (to destroy the tunnels) under (Hamas) fire. There are many tunnels left and Israel must check how long it can force its soldiers to carry out such a dangerous task. How did the Palestinians drag the Israeli soldiers into one of the tunnels and then engage with them? The tunnels that the occupying army refers to as “death traps”.
