Report: Israel mulls flooding Gaza tunnels with seawater

The Wall Street Journal cited US officials as saying Israel is considering flooding tunnels in Gaza with seawater. 

Large pumps were assembled last month by the Israeli military north of the al-Shati refugee camp in Gaza, the report said. 

The report said the pumps could draw water from the Mediterranean Sea and flood the tunnels within weeks but threaten Gaza's water supply.

Middle East Eye could not independently verify the details of the Monday report.
