The IDF releases footage obtained from the Gaza Strip showing senior Hamas commander Muhammed Sinwar, the brother of Hamas leader Yahya Sinwar, in a car driving through a major tunnel revealed earlier today by the military.

According to the IDF, the construction of the major tunnel network that was uncovered near the Erez border crossing was led by Muhammed Sinwar.

It is the largest-ever Hamas attack tunnel discovered by the military.
