Israel is planning to flood Hamas tunnels with nerve gas and chemical weapons with the help of the U.S. Delta Force commandos, according to a senior Arab source with knowledge of Palestinian resistance groups. The plan, according to the source, hinges on achieving the element of surprise to penetrate Hamas tunnels and execute a multifaceted operation. This operation aims to rescue approximately 220 hostages while neutralizing thousands of soldiers belonging to Hamas' al-Qassam brigades. The source mentioned that this information originates from a leak within the U.S., but news outlet Middle East Eye cannot independently verify this claim. The surprise element is crucial to decisively win the battle, and the plan involves using internationally prohibited gases, particularly nerve gas and chemical weapons, in large quantities to be pumped into the tunnels. The nerve gas is expected to paralyze bodily movement for a period ranging from six to 12 hours. During this window, the tunnels would be penetrated, hostages would be rescued and al-Qassam soldiers would be neutralized. Middle East Eye has reached out to the White House and the U.S. Department of Defense for comment but had not received a response at the time of publication. It is worth noting that the U.S. has been engaging with Israel regarding its potential invasion of Gaza, and U.S. Defense Secretary Lloyd Austin has been in regular contact with his Israeli counterpart. The leaked information also suggests that Israel's reported delay in its ground invasion is part of a deception campaign aimed at surprising the resistance in Gaza. The operational details of the attack, including Israeli commandos landing in northern Gaza and along the coast, have already been agreed upon.

Hamas tunnels pose a major problem

As Israel considers the possibility of a ground assault in Gaza, one major challenge it faces is the extensive underground tunnel system that Hamas has constructed. These tunnels, often referred to as the "metro" due to their size and complexity, are designed to conceal militants, enable surprise attacks and provide cover during conflicts. Experts suggest these tunnels will pose significant challenges for the Israel Defense Forces (IDF). Hamas claims to have built over 300 miles (500 kilometers) of tunnels beneath Gaza, which are reinforced with concrete and, in some cases, reach depths of up to 230 feet below the surface. These tunnels serve various purposes, including providing shelter from airstrikes; allowing the movement of personnel and supplies; and concealing hostages. Some sections of the tunnel system are equipped with electricity and communication capabilities, facilitating the movement of equipment and forces. The average tunnel dimensions are approximately 6.5 feet in height and a little over one foot in width. These tunnels are an integral part of Hamas' guerrilla warfare strategy, allowing its fighters to operate underground, conduct surprise attacks and hide weaponry, including rockets. They are also used to place "tunnel bombs" beneath key infrastructure, creating potential threats for the IDF. Lt. Col. Jonathan Conricus of the IDF has acknowledged the complexities of dealing with this tunnel system, as many tunnels are strategically located beneath civilian infrastructure. The IDF has specialized units, such as Yahalom, dedicated to countering the tunnel threat. Following a recent attack by Hamas on Oct. 7, the IDF claimed to have targeted several underground tunnels. Economy Minister Nir Barakat emphasized the significance of addressing the tunnel issue, stating that they could become a cemetery if necessary. However, Israel's primary focus remains on eliminating Hamas. In a ground incursion, Israel would have technical advantages, including the use of drones. Still, as the conflict moves into enemy territory and involves urban warfare, these advantages may diminish. Urban warfare requires infantry to clear buildings, basements and tunnel networks, often leading to close-quarters combat. Mick Mulroy, a former deputy assistant secretary of defense for the Middle East, highlighted that Israel might have to engage in soldier-on-soldier fighting and block-by-block clearance.
