#1 High pressure injection of water near tunnels would indeed make them a death trap.

#7 I'm not familiar with the geology of the area, but sand or loose material would liquify with the addition of water under high pressure.

I think most of what we have heard to date about the anti-tunnel system is mis-information.

#8 Seems like a line of heavy airborne cratering ordinance would
bring down tunnels easier than flooding and wall building.
