Bethlehem - Arab Today
Israeli forces have uncovered a tunnel crossing from the Gaza Strip into Israel, an Israeli army spokesperson told (Ma'an) news agency Monday morning.
The Israeli army lifted a gag order on the discovery of the tunnel Monday, which was uncovered earlier this week. It was the first such tunnel discovered since the Israeli assault on the Gaza Strip in 2014.
The tunnel has since been destroyed by Israeli forces on both sides of the border.
Reaching 30-meters deep at certain points, the tunnel reportedly extended from the eastern sector of the Gaza Strip to the south, and crossed into the Israeli side where Israeli military bases and towns are located.
