By intensifying its ground operations, Israel Defense Forces are wreaking havoc in the Hamas ruled Gaza Strip. With tanks and troops, IDF stepped up its offensive in the Israel-Hamas Conflict and now the Israeli military has reached inside Hamas tunnels. IDF released a video in which army men can be seen using excavators to dig into Hamas tunnel structures underground. In the video, the interior of the Hamas tunnel was also shown, which has been described as ‘spider’s web’. Reuters cited its sources claiming that Hamas has around 40,000 militants, who are fighting IDF in Gaza. They can move around the enclave using a vast web of fortified tunnels, hundreds of kilometers long up to 80 meters deep. Notably, IDF have found tunnels near various public facilities including schools, amusement parks, hospitals. Over a month of deadly war between Israel and Hamas, the locals of Gaza and Israel have suffered a lot. The Oct 07 surprise attack by Hamas on Israel took the lives of around 1,400 innocent civilians. On the other hand, the Gazan death toll has surpassed 9,000 after Israel initiated its retaliatory plan.
