IDF General: Soldiers Won't Enter the Tunnels, Will Turn Them into Hamas Death Traps

(Times of Israel) "Under no circumstances" should or will IDF soldiers enter Hamas' terror tunnels, former deputy IDF chief of staff Maj.-Gen. (res.) Yair Golan told Army Radio on Thursday. "You don't need to go into the tunnels" and "it would be a grave mistake to enter the tunnels" where Hamas is hiding and waiting. "The wisdom is to find the entrances and seal them, or send in smoke that will cause the enemy to come out or will harm him." "You don't fight inside the tunnels, you counter the threat of the tunnels." "Take my word for it. The IDF has the capabilities today to deal effectively with the tunnels. It has all the knowledge and the means. If Hamas stays in the tunnels, they will become a death trap....From the moment the entrances are found, the full advantage is with the attacking forces."
