Israeli Defence Minister Yoav Gallant has instructed the army to begin destroying tunnels in areas of Gaza currently under its control, as part of the ongoing ceasefire arrangement.
In a post on X, Gallant described the destruction of the tunnels as the army’s “central mission”, saying that around 60 percent of the network remains intact.
He added that the decision followed discussions with senior US officials.
