Total nonsense. Fatah was the first to begin constructing tunnels, primarily because Rafah was split in two following Israel’s occupation of Gaza, and families were separated. The first tunnels were built so families had ways to keep together. Some of those families realized that they could carry out a cross-border smuggling business, and thousands of smuggling tunnels began to be built. By whom? Youths mostly. This is well documented. Hamas ended up taxing the smuggling business, primarily because they needed to regulate it for drug and human trafficking.
You people tell so many lies.
Not only that the supposed “command centre” built under Al Shifa, which doesn’t exist, is a lower level area that was built by Israel itself.
“According to Israeli media reports, the underground facilities were designed by Tel Aviv architects Gershon Zippor and Benjamin Idelson. “Israel renovated and expanded the hospital complex with American assistance, in a project that also included the excavation of an underground concrete floor,” according to Zvi Elhyani, founder of the Israel Architecture Archive, writing in Israel’s Ynetnews.
The underground infrastructure was part of a modernization and expansion effort at Al-Shifa commissioned by Israel’s Public Works Department. “The Israeli civil administration in the territories
constructed the hospital complex’s Building Number 2, which has a large cement basement that housed the hospital’s laundry and various administrative services,” according to a report in the Israeli newspaper Haaretz.
The room and tunnels under Al-Shifa were reportedly completed in 1983. Tablet magazine described the space as “a secure underground operating room and tunnel network.” Zippor’s son Barak, who began working at his father’s architecture firm in the 1990s, said that during the construction at Al-Shifa in the 1980s, the Israeli construction contractors hired Hamas to provide security guards to prevent attacks on the building site.
“You know, decades ago we were running the place, so we helped them — it was decades, many decades ago, probably four decades ago that we helped them to build these bunkers in order to enable more space for the operation of the hospital within the very limited size of this compound,” former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Barak told a visibly stunned CNN host Christiane Amanpour.”
All you do is lie, lie, lie, lie, lie.
