17 Terrorists Who Fled Gaza Tunnels Killed or Captured
(Ynet News) Elisha Ben Kimon - The IDF said Saturday night that all 17 terrorists who attempted to flee tunnels in the Israeli-controlled zone of eastern Rafah were killed or captured after a 24-hour manhunt. 11 were killed and 6 were arrested. One detainee told interrogators that about 30 operatives had been inside the tunnel along with the bodies of 10 recently killed terrorists. He said the group left the tunnel to search for food and water. Israel and the U.S. have discussed how to deal with the terrorists trapped in the Rafah tunnel network. One proposal, which would have allowed them to be deported, collapsed after no foreign state - including Turkey and Qatar - agreed to accept them.
