A kilometer-long tunnel was recently located and demolished in the central Gaza Strip, the IDF announces.

The tunnel, which the military says was built under a civilian area and close to several homes, was found by troops of the 5th Brigade and combat engineers, including members of the elite Yahalom Combat Engineering Unit.

Inside the tunnel, the IDF says troops found several rooms, equipment, and weapons belonging to Hamas operatives.
