How Hamas tunnels will become their graves? Know what ex-IDF chief told soldiers

Former deputy Israel Defense Forces (IDF) chief of staff Yair Golan told the Israeli troops how they can turn Hamas’ tunnels into their graves. As the Israeli army broadens its ground operation to destroy Hamas’ capabilities, Golan told “under no circumstances” they should or will Israeli soldiers enter Hamas’ terror tunnels In an interview with Army Radio, the reserves general said, “You don’t need to go into the tunnels” and “it would be a grave mistake to enter the tunnels” where Hamas is hiding out and waiting. “The wisdom is to find the entrances and seal them, or send in smoke that will cause the enemy to come out or will harm him,” Golan said. “Under no circumstances do you fight in the tunnels… where there is no chance that you won’t get hurt. You don’t fight inside the tunnels, you counter the threat of the tunnels,” he said. When it is put to him that Hamas is capable of remaining inside its underground tunnel network “forever,” Golan said: “Take my word for it. The IDF has the capabilities today to deal effectively with the tunnels. It has all the knowledge and the means. If Hamas stays in the tunnels, they will become a death trap.” On October 7, Golan headed south and joined in the fighting against the terrorists rampaging across the western Negev. “The moment that we get to the tunnels, or regarding the tunnels we’ve already reached, they become a death trap for the enemy. From the moment the entrances are found, the full advantage is with the attacking forces," he said. With inputs from agencies
