As the international community's urge for a ceasefire in Gaza strengthens, the US dials up pressure on Israel with a second visit by the US Secretary of Defense, Lloyd Austin, since the onset of the conflict. The visit is expected to encourage Israeli officials, aiming to establish specific milestones for the ongoing aggression against Hamas.
Amid these developments, Israeli Defense Forces have reportedly unearthed what they proclaim as the most extensive Hamas tunnel within Gaza, spanning near three miles in length. Previously discovered tunnels have been fairly narrow, accommodating only single-file passage of patrons. However, this tunnel's dimensions are expansive enough for a large vehicle to tread through. The military also confirmed that the tunnel extended as deep as 50 meters underground.
