So Hamas gonna invade Israel like those lizard people in that one Dr Who episode, yeah?
Some settler gonna walk over a patch of ground and woosh, dragged into the underground by Hamas.
They should add a fire station pole and a pulley with a little bucket to put snacks in
More like 60 meters deep in some locations.
Couldn't they just raid, or toss bombs inside the entances and vent shafts to clear them out? Bunker busters are excessive, but we already knew that.
Simple bombs or grenades can be thwarted by placing a dip in the tunnel. That's also a good way to eliminate direct fire. You can even make a tunnel dip down then up and make it crawl height so that it forces an attacker to crawl and exit at an awkward angle.
You can set up a blast door for more serious bombs.
It's a huge force multiplier for defense. Israel will never achieve their stated goal of destroying Hamas.

With what Hamas dug those tunnels will, of course, never be explained.
I guess we've just discovered where Stalin's giant spoon went.
You know, if I was trying to target subterranean tunnels beneath a fucking city of civilians, I would also just bomb the buildings.
