A multi-story underground tunnel route spanning about two miles was located and dismantled in central Gaza, according to the Israel Defense Forces (IDF).
The IDF said the tunnel consisted of multiple branches with several rooms, weapons and means for long-term stay used by terrorist operatives.
The discovery comes as the Israeli military has once again urged Palestinians to evacuate Khan Younis and get to a humanitarian zone.
The IDF began its third invasion of Khan Younis on Thursday following December’s first invasion and another that wrapped up about a week ago.
Israel’s Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said his country will send a delegation to either Cairo or Doha next week to finalize the framework and details of a deal to stop the war in Gaza and free the remaining hostages.
Netanyahu’s comments came in response to a joint statement released Thursday by President Joe Biden and the leaders of Egypt and Qatar, urging Israel and Hamas to continue negotiations and quickly accept a deal.
Brian Katulis, the senior fellow US foreign policy at the Middle East Institute in Washington DC joined LiveNOW from FOX’s Josh Breslow to discuss the latest developments on the Israel-Hamas war, as well as the developments between Israel and Hezbollah.
The two also discussed the potential for an attack on Israel by Iran following the assassination of Hamas leader Ismail Haniyeh in Tehran.
