Are There More Tunnels All Over Eretz Yisrael That We Don't Know About??

 

Israelis Living near Tulkarem Complain about Underground Digging Noise

The residents of Bat Hefer, a community in the Sharon plain in Israel located east of Netanya and only 4 kilometers west of the PA city of Tulkarem, have been complaining recently about hearing underground digging noises. As you probably imagine, in post-October 7 Israel these noises can only mean one thing: someone from the other side of the “green line” is planning a massacre.

Also, in post-October 7 Israel, such complaints are taken very seriously. The Emek Hefer local council announced on Monday that the area in question will be investigated. The council said that so far three tests have been carried out using different methods, but no evidence of tunnel was indicated. Nevertheless, two additional tests will be carried out in the coming days.

The local council issued a statement saying: “The findings of the five tests, which examine the soil with different tools, will be analyzed by a team of experts, and the results will be made available to the public in full. In addition, during a tour on Friday, at the request of the council and Bat Hefer, a series of additional and extremely significant measures were agreed upon to strengthen the defense in the settlement and the region, including adding protective measures in addition to the wall, defensive operations, technological measures, and more.”

On Sunday, I reported that residents of Kibbutz Misgav Am complained they were hearing digging sounds under their homes and they, are afraid Hezbollah is planning a raid similar to the murderous Hamas attack on October 7, using underground tunnels. Misgav Am is located in Upper Galilee in northern Israel, near the Israeli town of Kiryat Shmona, close to the border with Lebanon, and facing the Lebanese town of Odaisseh.

Matan Buchner, a resident of Bat Hefer, told Reshet Bet Radio on Monday, “For several years we have been complaining about residents hearing knocking under their houses at night. It sounds exactly like Hamas digging, as they did in the south and as they did in the north.”

Due to its proximity to the Sharon region, the city of Tulkarem has been a hub for terrorist groups who have launched many deadly attacks against Israeli civilians since the first intifada.

WHAT ABOUT THIS:

Northern Settlements Fear Hezbollah Massacre via Underground Tunnels

A year ago, residents of Kibbutz Misgav Am complained they were hearing digging sounds under their homes. These days they are afraid Hezbollah is planning a raid similar to the murderous Hamas attack on October 7, using underground tunnels.

Misgav Am is located in Upper Galilee in northern Israel, near the Israeli town of Kiryat Shmona, close to the border with Lebanon, and facing the Lebanese town of Odaisseh.

In December 2018, Israel announced the discovery of several tunnels that had been dug by Hezbollah and reached from Lebanon into Israel. Their existence was confirmed and condemned by the United States, Germany, and the United Kingdom. The residents of Misgav Am are afraid the IDF may not have discovered all the Hezbollah tunnels.

Ofer Moscowitz, a resident of Misgav Am, told News12 this week: “One night, about a year ago, around three in the morning, I heard digging. Other people told me they heard it as well. Strange, incomprehensible noises, like some kind of air hammer. Knocking noise, something dull. It’s stressful, it’s scary. I notified the army. The army does not take these messages lightly, they usually check them. The army came, asked me questions, and interrogated me about it. They didn’t offer too many conclusions; they don’t tell us anything.”

“They checked; I don’t know what means they used,” Moscowitz continued. “First, they asked what I heard, investigated, and then they said: ‘If you hear it again, inform us and we will do our tests.’ They may be checking closer to the fence. My house is 15 meters from the fence, maybe they check more in the direction of the border itself. I believe that they do their tests around the settlement, not inside it.”

Moscowitz is one of the few residents of the northern border settlements who stayed home after the majority had been evacuated to hotels further south. He has experienced lethal fire from the Lebanese side of the border and said much of his property, including farmland, has been destroyed.

“Our house is in a very dangerous area called the ‘Killing Zone,’” said Moscowitz. “They tell you: ‘If you go near there, you know you’re taking a risk.’ My daughter was supposed to move to Misgav Am. I don’t know if I want my grandchildren to grow up in a dangerous and scary area. If the IDF does nothing, I will be afraid.”

“On the other hand,” he said, “You hear about the price that is being paid, our best sons are being killed, so I say to myself: Wait, why do we need this headache? The avocado orchard is just money, what’s important is the safety of the people, who will continue to live properly.”

“I will return and live in Misgav Am, but I won’t be angry if families with children say they are afraid to come back,” he said.
