"Israel Floods Hamas Tunnels Under Gaza Cemetery, Uncovering Intriguing Details"
Israeli forces destroyed a massive tunnel system under a Gaza cemetery in the Bani Suheila neighborhood of Khan Younis, where Hamas operatives allegedly plotted an October terrorist attack and managed forces during the 2021 conflict. The tunnels, equipped with amenities like a kitchen, bathrooms, and bedrooms, were active when the IDF arrived, leading to a confrontation with Hamas terrorists. The destruction of the cemetery and nearby mosque has raised concerns about the treatment of buried bodies, with the IDF facing criticism for its actions at gravesites. Israel defended its actions as necessary to dismantle Hamas' terrorist network and locate hostages, arguing that protections for culturally important sites are void when used for military purposes.
