Israel says it blocked ‘attack tunnel’ from Gaza Strip

Israel’s military said on Monday it blocked a tunnel dug by the Gaza’s ruling Islamist group Hamas that was meant as a passageway for militants from
the enclave into Israel.
Palestinian gunmen used tunnels to blindside Israeli forces during a 2014 Gaza war. Israel has since been developing detection technologies and constructed an underground concrete barrier with sensors to foil attempts to dig across the border.
The military has exposed several tunnels in recent years.
