The IDF says it recently demolished a Hamas attack tunnel during operations of the Gaza Division and the Yahalom combat engineering unit in the southern Gaza Strip.
The tunnel was hundreds of meters long and had several exits, some of them rigged with explosives, the army says.
During the efforts to uncover and demolish the tunnel, the IDF says troops spotted a cell of operatives emerging from one of the shafts. The troops killed the cell, according to the IDF.
