In a significant operation led by the IDF's 5th Reserve Brigade combat team, a clandestine tunnel leading to an underground hideout equipped with an elevator was discovered and subsequently demolished in the al-Shati neighborhood of the Gaza Strip. The mission, carried out in collaboration with the Israeli Air Force, aimed to neutralize a Hamas facility.
The tunnel led to a concealed Hamas hideout apartment, where Israeli forces uncovered a cache of weapons, including rocket launchers, along with valuable intelligence documents. The confiscated documents are now in the possession of the IDF.
The demolition of the tunnel shaft was captured on video, showcasing the precision and coordination involved in the operation. The IDF soldiers were also deployed for defense missions in the surrounding area before engaging in combat within the depths of the Strip.
