"Israeli Troops Engage in Guerrilla Warfare in Gaza's Vast Tunnel System"
Israeli troops preparing for a ground invasion of Gaza will face a complex and dangerous 300-mile tunnel system operated by Hamas, which includes booby traps and serves as a strategic advantage for the terrorist group. The tunnels have been used for attacks on Israel and have multiple entrances and exits in civilian buildings, making them difficult to locate. The tunnels can also provide refuge from airstrikes and are likely to be the location of hostages. Israel has destroyed a significant portion of the tunnels, but Hamas continues to invest in their expansion. The IDF may use drones and unmanned vehicles to map the tunnels and set off traps, but the effectiveness of these methods remains uncertain.
