Israel Defense Forces continued their campaign against Hamas on Wednesday when they discovered and demolished three of the terrorist group’s underground shafts, which were located close to the Rantisi Hospital and in the adjacent High School.
The tunnel shafts utilized by the Hamas combatants are connected by an underground network that passes beneath the hospital and into Gaza City. The tunnel shafts are several dozen meters deep.
“IDF troops are uncovering Hamas’ tunnels inside and around multiple hospitals within Gaza. The Rantisi Hospital is just another terrorist stronghold used to connect and transfer terrorists and weapons throughout Gaza to be used against Israelis,” the IDF wrote in a post on X (formerly Twitter), after recovering the tunnel.

In recent weeks, IDF soldiers led by the 162nd Division’s 401st Brigade, in collaboration with Flotilla 13 and the ‘Yahalom’ Unit, discovered and searched three active tunnel shafts near Rantisi Hospital.
‘Yahalom’ soldiers searched the region, as well as the shafts and tunnels, employing a variety of methods to map the topography of the tunnels and the linkages between the shafts.
Notably, Yahalom is a sayeret unit of the Israeli Combat Engineering Corps of the Israel Defence Forces (IDF).
