    Ismail Haniyeh said Friday that militants dig tunnels and test rockets to attack Israel “every day.”

    He spoke at the funeral of 7 militants who died this week when a tunnel from Gaza to Israel collapsed while they were repairing it.

    Hamas has built a sophisticated network of tunnels that it has used to penetrate Israel to carry out attacks on civilians and soldiers. Israel destroyed dozens of the tunnels during the 2014 Gaza war.

    Israeli media has reported that people living in communities near the border with Gaza have complained to authorities after hearing tunneling sounds.

    What a brave bunch of warriors Hamas is digging in the dirt like a bunch of rats. Why don’t they come out of their rat holes and fight the IDF like real soldiers?

    isn’t this obvious, as long as the Zionists provide them with water, electricity and food, they will continue to attack this entity.

    “the Islamic militant group that rules Gaza, says its gunmen continue to build attack tunnels into Israel”

    Yet Obama and The UN remain silent.

    The fact that they can get away with admitting an act of war publicly with no repercussions is shameful. One missile on Hamas funeral rallies like these should kill loads of terrorists.

    The bunker busting bombs would solve the problem.

    A tin roof collapses along with houses from the rain.
    Perhaps these idiots should use the cement that is allowed in for Housing instead of Rat Tunnels.
    Send the notice to Paris so they can see whom to blame for no negotiations.
