The Israeli military says it has discovered tunnels underneath the main headquarters of the U.N. agency for Palestinian refugees in Gaza City, alleging that Hamas militants used the space as an electrical supply room.

The unveiling of the tunnels marked the latest chapter in Israel’s campaign against the embattled agency, which it accuses of collaborating with Hamas.

Recent Israeli allegations that a dozen staff members participated in the Hamas attack on Israel Oct. 7 plunged the agency into a financial crisis, prompting major donor states to suspend their funding as well as twin investigations. The agency says that Israel has also frozen its bank account, embargoed aid shipments and canceled its tax benefits.

The army invited journalists to view the tunnel on Thursday.

    When I was scrolling down I saw the title first before seeing the forum and immediatelly thought - I kid you not - that “This must be The Onion”.

    One has to be incredibly naive (or a pro-Israel racist) to believes in all these “amazing coincidences” one after the other of Israel suddenly “discovering” (whilst providing zero evidence) all manner of bad things about the Humanitarian agency that’s keeping Palestinians from starving to death and thus impeding a “final solution” for the “Palestinian problem” (both quotes are from Israeli officials)

      I’ll be honest, I assumed half of the last paragraph was stolen from Nazi material and had jewish references replaced with Palestinian ones.

      Holy shit. I knew they were genocidal as fuck, but I didn’t know they actually used those words. Could you please post some sources for those quotes? I’d love to take a look into it.

            Given your history here is essentially just this, I think there js a good chance you are being somewhat honest in this answer.
