Forces had no direct confrontation with Hamas terrorists who killed hostages; 'The IDF and security forces are doing everything possible to bring all hostages home as quickly as possible. This news shakes us all,' says army spokesperson Hagari

Israeli forces discovered the bodies of six hostages in a 65-foot-deep tunnel in Rafah, approximately a kilometer from where hostage Farhan Alkadi was recently freed. The IDF had no precise intelligence on the hostages' location in recent months but knew there were captives in the sector, leading to a gradual and cautious operation in Rafah since the ground offensive began.

Oh yeah, the Other debunked tunnel propaganda . My bad, it's so hard to keep all of this propaganda straight.

And lol, NBC was one of the many cheerleaders for the Iraq war, maybe don't use argument to authority fallacies when you're using a source that's perpetuated state propaganda before.

Oh yeah, the Other debunked tunnel propaganda .

That article doesn't debunk it. It simultaneously says the proof of the tunnels under the hospital is unconvincing and then says "but Israel build basement rooms in the 1980s so it doesn't count."
