Israel is pumping seawater into Gaza tunnels despite warnings from Russia about "war crimes"

As promised, members of the Israel Defense Forces (IDF) are pumping seawater into the underground tunnels below Gaza to flush out and kill Hamas operatives, despite this constituting a "war crime." According to reports, Israel's military has already begun pumping seawater into the tunnels as "part of an intensive effort to destroy the underground infrastructure that has underpinned the group's operations," the Wall Street Journal reported. Initially, the idea was floated as one of many different options that Israel could take in its war on Gaza. Many observers thought the idea sounded unrealistic since the tunnels stretch for miles and miles, but Israel is reportedly now in the process of siphoning water from the Mediterranean Sea and dumping it underground. The IDF has not yet officially announced the plan, only stating that these ongoing operations are a classified matter that will remain as such for the time being. "U.S. officials" cited by the Journal told the media outlet that the tunnel-flooding operation will take weeks, having begun around the time when Israel added two more pumps to the five pumps already installed last month for such a purpose. Following a round of tests to ensure the water pumps work, Israel proceeded to start flooding the tunnels as promised, putting even more civilian lives at risk.

Israel wants all of Gaza for itself

The plan is for Israel to completely take over the Gaza Strip and absorb the land into its own. Doing this requires many deaths, apparently, as well as the prospect of the possible loss of around 137 Israeli and foreign hostages that still remain in Hamas captivity ever since October 7. Last week's temporary ceasefire and prisoner swap deal has expired, and Israel is now back in the saddle of ridding Gaza of all Palestinians to make way for the much-anticipated Ben Gurion Canal, as well as Israel's planned exploitation of the vast oil and natural gas reserves located off the coast of Gaza in the Mediterranean Sea. It is believed that many or all of the remaining 137 hostages in Gaza are being held somewhere in the vast underground tunnel system that Israel is now flooding. All of these hostage lives are now at risk because of the endeavor. So far, Israel says it has identified at least 800 tunnels, but believes the full scope of the underground tunnel network is much, much larger than what has thus far been discovered. "We are not sure how successful pumping will be since nobody knows the details of the tunnels and the ground around them," an unnamed security source told the Journal last week. "It's impossible to know if that will be effective because we don't know how seawater will drain in tunnels no one has been in before." Gaza's already badly damaged water system, which was shut off by Israel after October 7, is also at risk of succumbing to even more corrosive damage from all the seawater being dumped in it. Not only is the saltier aquifer from which Gaza draws freshwater for drinking at risk, but so are buildings and even entire blocks of buildings that could become uninhabitable for years to come.
