There are hundreds of tunnels under the 9-mile (15-kilometer) Gaza-Egypt border, used for smuggling goods and people into Gaza. Israel charges that weapons and ammunition, including rockets that can hit Israeli cities, reach Gaza through the tunnels.
Israel hits tunnels in airstrikes, retaliation for rocket attacks from Gaza. But there have been no airstrikes in the past two days.
Hamas and Gaza health officials said the four Palestinians died Tuesday as they worked underground. In the past three years, about 160 workers have been killed in the tunnels, human rights groups say.
They were repairing the tunnel? Or middle of smuggling?
If Egypt was so nice to the arabs from Gaza, then why did they need tunnels???
Ba’avod Reshaim Rena!!!

I hope they suffered. Cmon all you liberals blast me for my lack of humanitarian feeling.
May they rest in pieces!
“about 160 workers have been killed in the tunnels, human rights groups say.”
so the human rights groups want them yo be able to smuggle in public that they don’t die underground.
Number 6 – how dare you? Why would you wish that on any human being, let alone those who are committed to the annihilation of Jews? Why would you want them to suffer? They are human after all – and you wouldn’t even wish that on an animal! Shame on you!
They should have suffered? I can only hope it was a very slow, very painful process to allow them enough time to think about the error of their ways, so the special place in pergutory will be not as bad.

Do you think they suffered as much as the Fogels? Just askin’.
May Hashem destroy and collapse the rest of the Aza tunnels and fortified bunkers.
Since when has it been the purpose of human rights groups to report on deaths that occur due to illegal terroristic smuggling? Now the Israelis will be charged by the UN with unnecessary suffocation….. because all these people in the tunnel were doing were “simply looking for shelter”!
