Hamas: Revealed Tunnel Was for Kidnapping Another Israeli
(Times of Israel) Mitch Ginsburg - The tunnel from Gaza to the fields of Kibbutz Ein Hashlosha was meant to facilitate the capture of an Israeli and holding him or her as a bargaining chip, senior Hamas official Moussa Abu Marzouk confirmed on Tuesday. "The tunnel which was revealed was extremely costly in terms of money, effort and blood," he wrote on his Facebook page. "All of this is meaningless when it comes to freeing our heroic prisoners." He went on to detail the lucrative nature of the Gilad Shalit deal, in which 1,027 prisoners were released.
