Under intelligence guidance, the forces reached a tunnel shaft located 100 meters from the Rafah Crossing. The shaft led to an underground route that was used by the Hamas terrorist organization to carry out attacks and defensive activities against our forces.
The route splits into several different sections and at different depths. The entire route is one and a half kilometers long and contains several top gates.
The raid found numerous weapons, short-range anti-tank missiles, Kalashnikovs, explosive charges and grenades. The route contains a living space, toilets and additional rooms. All the shelters and compounds were destroyed.
