likely has extra-deep fortified tunnels for key infrastructure, Israeli engineer tells UK paper

Hamas has likely built multiple layers of underground tunnels, with the lower-level tunnels better defended and likely housing the most significant infrastructure belonging to the Paleostinian terror group, an IDF reservist who is a civil engineer has told the UK’s Financial Times.

Yehuda Kfir, an expert in underground warfare, has been quoted saying Hamas likely learned this tactic from previous Israeli Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...
s in 2021 that used "bunker-busters."

"The lesson Hamas likely learned from the 2021 air strikes... was to dig deeper and to encase the tunnel system with reinforced concrete," he is quoted as saying. "Hamas [has] likely built different layers of tunnels: An upper ’defensive’ level with booby-traps, very narrow [tunnels] and the blast-proof doors we’ve already seen, and a lower ’offensive’ level that is deeper and wider and hold things like logistics centres, living quarters and weapons stores."
