Two tunnels belonging to Hamas<\/a> were sealed in the Gaza Strip, the military announced on Wednesday.<\/p>\n

The IDF’s Gaza Division Combat Engineers<\/a> were deployed to seal the tunnels<\/a>, which had a combined length of more than two kilometers.<\/p>\n

Drone footage released by the IDF shows the tunnels running underground at length, packed with sandbags.<\/p>\n

The IDF also said that troops operating in the area are working in accordance with the ceasefire<\/a> agreement, while maintaining that the IDF continues to work to remove immediate threats.<\/p>\n

This week, the IDF struck a cafe<\/a> in northern Gaza City port, killing several Hamas commanders who were meeting there to plan imminent attacks against Israeli forces in the Strip.<\/p>\n

Six people in total were killed, with at least 10 others wounded in the strike.<\/p>\n

A Gazan terror cell in Khan Yunis was also struck by the air force last week, which was likewise planning and preparing an operation against the military.<\/p>\n

The IDF has been ordered to halt its attacks in the Gaza Strip, with the exception of terrorists who are known to be planning to carry out imminent strikes.<\/p>\n
