The IDF has discovered a”significant” tunnel network in the Al-Amal neighborhood of Khan Younis amid a new offensive in the area.

With new intelligence from interrogated terror operatives, the IDF says it has reached three previously undiscovered tunnel shafts.

The IDF previously operated in Al-Amal last month, and returned earlier this week following intelligence indicating that Hamas was using civilian sites in the neighborhood, including a hospital, for terror activity.
