The Israeli media quoted Adina Moshe, a former Israeli captive held by Hamas in Gaza, as saying the Israeli internal security service (Shabak) asked her to draw a map of the tunnels in Gaza, “because they don’t know anything about them.”

Moshe, who was released in a previous exchange deal last November, told the Shabak investigator who visited her after her release that the tunnels in the Gaza Strip are “a huge, large labyrinth that extends underground throughout the Strip, and military pressure will not help bring back the prisoners.”

She said that Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu is lying, and that he and the army do not know anything about the tunnels of the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) in the Gaza Strip.

During her speech at the protests demanding a prisoner exchange deal with Gaza, Moshe noted that the Shin Bet investigator asked her to explain what Hamas’s tunnels looked like, what their branches were and where they were located, which made it clear to her that the Israeli security services knew nothing about the tunnels.

Moshe told the investigator that the tunnels were “a huge, vast labyrinth that runs underground across the entire Strip. It’s not one tunnel, but a network of endless tunnels.”

When they asked her to draw the tunnels in Gaza, Moshe told the Shin Bet that she wasn’t a painter, which she considered further proof that they knew nothing about them.

The New York Times reported last week that the tunnels in Gaza were an underground nightmare for the Israeli army and the core of Hamas’s ability to survive.

According to the newspaper, Israeli intelligence officials estimate that there are about 160 kilometers of tunnels under Khan Yunis, the second largest city in southern Gaza according to JO24.
