The Israeli army has admitted to the use of flooded tunnels in military operations in Gaza

Mondo Military Updated on 2024-02-02

The Israeli military has recently publicly acknowledged the use of flooded tunnels to force Palestinian Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) fighters to show up. This has given rise to many concerns and warnings about the environment and the safety of people. Organizations such as Hamas have dug a large number of underground tunnels in the Gaza Strip for their members to carry out activities and storage. The Israeli military previously claimed to have destroyed hundreds of tunnel shafts, but did not achieve decisive destructive results. As the Israeli military openly acknowledged the way in which the flooded tunnels were used, people began to think about the ethics and effectiveness of this practice. Although the Israeli military calls it an application of a new technology, it is undoubtedly a threat and danger to those in the tunnel. So, is the use of flooded tunnels reasonable? This practice has sparked a lot of controversy.

On the one hand, the Israeli military sees this as an effective means of forcing Hamas militants to emerge from underground tunnels. They claim that this is to ensure the security of the Israeli people. However, on the other hand, there are concerns about the damage to the environment caused by this practice and the threat to the safety of people in the tunnels. Hamas and other groups have reportedly dug at least 500 kilometers of tunnels in the Gaza Strip. These tunnels are used not only for transporting ** and ammunition, but also for hiding and protecting their members. Although the Israeli military claimed to have destroyed hundreds of tunnel shafts, it did not achieve decisive destructive results. This has forced the Israeli military to find new ways to deal with these tunnels. However, the way in which flooded tunnels are used raises many concerns. First, this practice can cause irreversible damage to the local environment.

The injection of large amounts of seawater may lead to the contamination of groundwater sources, affecting the lives of local residents and agriculture. Secondly, it also poses a threat to the safety of people in the tunnel. Although the Israeli military claims that they will warn the people in the tunnel in advance, in practice, miscalculations and accidents will inevitably occur. In addition to the environmental and personnel safety issues, there is a larger issue to consider. Is the Israeli military's use of flooded tunnels in accordance with international humanitarian law? Under international humanitarian law, the use of destructive force to attack underground fortifications is restricted. However, the Israeli military claims that what they are doing is to ensure the security of the Israeli people, which further complicates the problem. In any case, the practice has sparked widespread discussion and controversy as the Israeli military has publicly acknowledged the way it used the flooded tunnels.

There is widespread concern about how to ensure the safety of the Israeli people while minimizing harm to the environment and people. This requires all parties to work together to find more rational and effective solutions. After all, the goal of lasting peace can be achieved only through dialogue and cooperation. The conflict between Israel and Hamas has been going on for weeks, with both sides vying for control of the Gaza Strip. In recent days, however, the Israeli side has adopted a new strategy to weaken Hamas by flooding underground tunnels. This flooding tactic is indeed an effective means for the Israeli army to destroy Hamas's underground infrastructure and weaken their ability to resist. However, such tactics could have serious consequences for the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip.

The Gaza Strip is densely populated, and many people live in basements or basement-style houses. Once an underground tunnel is flooded, it can cause houses to collapse or people **. This will bring great danger and harm to the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip. In addition, flooding could also lead to a rise in the water table, affecting water sources and agricultural land in the Gaza Strip. The Gaza Strip is already facing water scarcity and agricultural hardship, and this tactic could further exacerbate the humanitarian crisis. Of course, the Israeli side's use of flooding tactics also has its considerations. They believe that this tactic can minimize the power of Hamas and reduce the ** of the Israeli army. However, we must use this tactic sparingly and fully consider its possible negative consequences.

The inhabitants of the Gaza Strip have already suffered immensely in this conflict, and we cannot add further hardship to them. So, is there an alternative solution? Can we resolve this issue through negotiation and diplomacy? After all, long-term stability and security can only be truly achieved through a peaceful settlement. At the same time, the international community should play an active role in helping the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip to tide over this difficult period by providing humanitarian assistance and support. Long-term peace and prosperity can be achieved only by working together. In any case, we must be aware that conflict and violence do not solve the problem, but only bring more pain and harm. It is only through peaceful means, through dialogue and compromise, that we can find a real solution.

It is hoped that the inhabitants of the Gaza Strip will soon be able to shake off the shadow of war and live a peaceful and peaceful life. It is to be hoped that the international community will work together to achieve this goal. Let's work together for peace and stability!
