The Israel Defence Force claims it has uncovered the “the biggest Hamas tunnel” in Gaza, spanning four kilometres.
The army said the tunnel facilitated the transit of vehicles, militants and supplies in preparation for the October 7 attack.
Israel claims it has exposed hundreds of terror tunnel shafts throughout the Gaza Strip and insists the destruction of Hamas' tunnel network is a major objective.
The UK's Foreign Secretary has backed calls for a sustainable ceasefire in Gaza, warning too many civilians have lost their lives in the conflict.
Palestinian health officials claim more than 18,000 people have been killed in Gaza.
