Published Israeli prisoner warnings about the current Hamas tunnel threatening

The recently liberated Geisel, Tal Shoham, announced on Saturday that, despite the military operations of Israel in the Enclave, Hamas has expanded its extensive underground tunnel network in Gaza and underlines the ongoing security concerns in the months after the conflict.

Shoham was kidnapped by the Hamas terrorists on October 7, 2023 when he visited his wife's parents in Kibbutz Be'eri together with his wife Adi and her two small children Yahel and Naveh. His wife and children were released during a ceasefire in November 2023, but Shoham himself remained trapped for 505 days, finally freed on February 22, 2025.

In an interview that was broadcast on Saturday evening by Fox News, Shoham described his shattering Tortur and remembered that when he was handed over to terrorists to protect his family, he was brought up by the streets of the Gaza streets that were ridiculed by crowds. He spent the first 50 days without giving his family's fate consciously and severe psychological agony. Shoham said that he had to prepare mentally by introducing her funerals as a way to deal with the trauma.

While the underground was locked up into the underground until his release from June 2024, Shoham experienced the ongoing tunnel operation first -hand. He said to Fox News: “Hamas never stopped diging tunnels. Not for a single day. “His kidnappers, who were responsible for the expansion of the tunnel network, continuously worked and confirmed former Israeli military reviews that the extensive infrastructure of Hamas continued to go into operation.

The tunnels, which the Israeli defense officers estimated at 350 to 450 miles in early 2024, comprise about 5,700 entrance waves. Despite months of Israeli air strikes that aim to deactivate the Hamas infrastructure, many tunnels are reportedly functional or were quickly repaired.
