In the effort to prevent Hamas terrorists from infiltrating into Israel via the vast Gaza tunnel system, Israel is reportedly building a large deep wall that will effectively place a barrier between Israel Gaza that runs underground as well as above ground.
According to the Yediot Achronot report, the security establishment plans to dig down deep around the Gaza border and construct a wall tens of meters down underground, which will place an impenetrable barrier against tunnels underground.
The project has an estimated price tag of NIS 2.2 billion. The wall will extend the entire length of the 69km (36 mile) border around Gaza.

It’s sounds like a great idea on paper, but is there really a definable depth below which determined tunnelers will not dig over time?
Its alot cheaper to just carpet bomb the entire Gaza.
Trump will neeed to do the same for his WALL
Are they saying its impossible for hamas to drill a hole through the wall 30m deep underground?
Just Do It
Would be cheaper to dig a hole 100 feet deep and fill with sewage water and pig feet. Why waste the cement.
Israel has to do whatever it can to keep the animals out.
#2 & #6 great ideas
