IDF Finds Sixth and Largest Hizbullah Attack Tunnel
(Ynet News) Yoav Zitun - The IDF on Saturday located a sixth attack tunnel dug by Hizbullah from Eastern Ramyeh in Lebanon into Israeli territory. "The tunnel was 800 meters long on its Lebanese side and infiltrated dozens of meters into Israel. The tunnel is two meters high, one meter in diameter, and approximately 55 meters deep. It's equipped with railway tracks, steps carved into the rock, as well as electric power and lighting," the army said. "According to our assessments, there are no longer any tunnels crossing into Israel," said military spokesman Lt.-Col. Jonathan Conricus. "IDF troops and the underground detection laboratory will continue operating regularly along the Lebanese border," as the army declared Sunday the completion of Operation Northern Shield to locate Hizbullah terror tunnels.
