(Times of Israel) Emanuel Fabian - The IDF has killed at least 2,308 operatives of Hamas's Rafah Brigade and destroyed over 13 km. (8 miles) of tunnels, military officials said Thursday. Brig.-Gen. Itzik Cohen said his combat engineering forces located 203 separate, but interconnected, tunnels in the Philadelphi Corridor, including 9 that had crossed into Egypt, but every single one had been blocked up before the IDF arrived. "There are a total of nine underground sites [tunnels] that cross into Egyptian territory, but they have collapsed, they are not usable, they are not active," he said.
