What are the tunnels under Gaza? Beneath the warscape of Gaza City lies a vast network of tunnels built by the Palestinian terror group Hamas. Some entrance shafts are hidden among what remains of the city's multi-storey buildings, ravaged by Israeli air strikes. Others are concealed in sandy dunes outside the city. The Israeli army presented the tunnel shafts they say were being operated by Islamist militant group Hamas to attack Israel, as well as an array of heavy arms laid outside of Gaza's largest hospital, saying they were found within the hospital and vehicles parked within the compound in a span of two days. Like other places in the region, tunnels beneath Gaza were used for years to hide and smuggle goods. However, Hamas dramatically expanded the tunnel network, and how it's used, in the early 2000s. In 2001, for example, Hamas insurgents used a growing tunnel system to explode a bomb under an Israeli military post.
