In an unusual move to deal with the underground network of tunnels in Gaza, Israeli forces are testing a new method to thwart Hamas militants. The Israelis are flooding these tunnels with seawater. Information about this new strategy was reportedly passed to the United States, although the precise location of the tunnels being targeted remains unreported.
Honing in on this delicate operation, Israeli forces are said to be proceeding with caution to ensure hostages, possibly present in the tunnels, are not imperiled. However, the assurance has not instilled full confidence in President Biden. He highlighted that, despite statements asserting hostages are not in these tunnels, he cannot confirm this as a fact.
