TL;DR Summary

Israel has reportedly assembled a system of pumps near the Gaza Strip that could be used to flood tunnels used by Hamas militants. The pumps, capable of moving thousands of cubic meters of water per hour, could render the tunnels inoperable within weeks. It is unclear whether Israel would use the pumps before all hostages are released. The plan was reportedly shared with the United States, but it is unknown if Israel has made a final decision on carrying it out.
