The IDF releases footage from the entrance to a tunnel in southern Gaza’s Rafah, where hostages Hersh Goldberg-Polin, Eden Yerushalmi, Ori Danino, Alex Lobanov, Carmel Gat and Almog Sarusi were murdered by Hamas terrorists and later found by troops.
The tunnel entrance was located in a “children’s yard,” the IDF says. The walls next to the tunnel shaft are seen decorated with Disney characters, and there are also teddy bears in the vicinity.
According to the military, many Hamas terrorists were in the surrounding area, along with many booby traps that they had set up.
“This is another example of Hamas’s cynical use of civilian areas for terror activity,” the IDF adds.
