    Are you seriously trying to argue that those tunnels are at least 200 feet underground? Buildings don’t matter to these munitions, solid packed earth does.

    Those tunnels are at best 6 to 10 feet underground, and could be breached with standard munitions, bunker busters aren’t needed, as Hamas hasn’t had the funding or materials to concrete line the walls to bunker specifications.

      No, I’m not arguing that, the US government is arguing that, based upon tunnels the IDF’s Yahalom unit has found, including one that was found in 2022 that was supposedly at least 230 feet deep. I haven’t the foggiest idea how deep those tunnels go, I’m getting my information from the US and Israeli government. It’s entirely possible they’re exaggerating the depth for propaganda purposes, or even under exaggerating.

      The paper from West point I read also said the tunnels were primarily prefabricated concrete sides and ceilings. So either you’re wrong, or the IDF is.
