The IDF and Shin Bet security agency reveal footage showing several Hamas operatives who were killed by Israeli troops inside one of the terror group’s tunnels in northern Gaza.
According to a joint statement, the “significant” tunnel was discovered in recent days by the Gaza Division’s Northern Brigade alongside the Shin Bet.
The Hamas operatives were identified and killed by the Combat Engineering Corps’ elite Yahalom unit, using “diverse means,” the IDF says, without elaborating further.
The footage appears to show a camera being lowered into the tunnel, with one operative touching the device, before apparently being shot or being hit by an explosive.
The video then cuts to another clip, showing the bodies of several Hamas operatives on the floor of the tunnel.
