The Israeli military says it has discovered tunnels underneath the main headquarters of the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees in Gaza City, alleging that Hamas militants used the space as an electrical supply room.
The unveiling of the tunnels marked the latest chapter in Israel’s campaign against the embattled agency, which it accuses of collaborating with Hamas.
Recent Israeli allegations that a dozen staff members participated in the Hamas attack on Israel Oct. 7 plunged the agency into a financial crisis, prompting major donor states to suspend their funding as well as twin investigations. The agency says that Israel has also frozen its bank account, embargoed aid shipments and canceled its tax benefits.
The army invited journalists to view the tunnel on Thursday.
I’m trying to look at this logically. If you were going to fake something, how is the best you can come up with an electrical supply room? It’s a pretty crappy gotcha. Which brings us back to my original question of even if Israel had faked it before, if this time it was proven to be true, wouldn’t that mean something? I would liken that scenario to be like the police frame two people for murder but the third one is legitimate. It’s right to be very sceptical but if it’s all proven to be true for the 3rd person it should still mean something
