The Israel Defense Forces says troops in the elite Yahalom combat engineering unit have been working to demolish Hamas tunnels discovered during ground operations in the Gaza Strip.
Yahalom troops, members of the Combat Engineering Corps’s 7107th Battalion, along with infantry forces of the Nahal and Negev brigades, as well as tanks, have uncovered several tunnel entrances in northern Gaza, the IDF says.
“The troops uncovered shafts, planted explosives… and neutralized the tunnels,” the IDF says.
It publishes videos showing troops discovering a tunnel and blowing up another.
