The Israeli military has completed a four-stage operation to destroy what it termed Hezbollah's "refuge city" in Gaza, a 2-kilometer long network of tunnels. The operation involved the detonation of approximately 450 tons of explosives, obliterating the underground infrastructure. The tunnels, reportedly built with Iranian support, were found to be stocked with weapons and food supplies, serving as a significant operational base for the organization.
