"IDF Uncovers Hamas Tunnel Holding Israeli Hostages in Southern Gaza"

The Israel Defense Forces uncovered an elaborate Hamas tunnel in Gaza, equipped with air ventilation, electrical supply, and plumbing, which was confirmed to have held Israeli hostages. The IDF estimates that millions of shekels were invested in excavating the tunnel, and over 300 tunnel shafts have been exposed and dozens destroyed in Khan Younis. Israel believes more than 130 hostages remain in captivity in the Gaza Strip, and negotiations for a potential second round of hostage exchanges are ongoing between Hamas and Israel.
