| Egyptian forces detonate smuggling tunnel |
| 2010-04-18 |
| [Ma'an] Egyptian authorities detonated a smuggling tunnel in Rafah on the Egyptian border south of Gaza on Saturday. The tunnel, located in the As-Salam neighborhood of Rafah, was destroyed without any injuries reported, our correspondent said. Additionally, Egyptian forces stormed another subterranean tunnel used for smuggling cars into Gaza after receiving information that digging to complete the structure was underway in Al-Qumbuz, north of the Rafah crossing, security sources said. Sources added that the estimated cost for the tunnel's construction exceeded USD $500,000. No cars or suspects were seized in the incident. 500 grand for a tunnel? Clearly I'm in the wrong business. If only I could cut off some more legs ... The car-smuggling tunnel was the sixth discovered by Egyptian forces, who have detonated all the previous structures along the Gaza border. |
