For the first time: Dozens of UN ambassadors entered a Hamas tunnel in Gaza

Dozens of UN ambassadors entered the Gaza Strip for the first time and toured a Hamas tunnel, accompanied by the commander of the Southern Command. Israel's ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon, warned that as long as Hamas controls the Strip, there will be no reconstruction.

Dozens of UN ambassadors entered the Gaza Strip for the first time this morning (Sunday) and toured a Hamas tunnel, as part of a visit led by Israel's ambassador to the UN, Danny Danon. The tour began at Kibbutz Kfar Aza, where the ambassadors were shown the destruction from the October 7 attack, and continued into the Gaza Strip. The commander of the Southern Command, Major General Yaniv Asor, accompanied the delegation and provided a security briefing. Danon emphasized that as long as Hamas controls the Strip, reconstruction cannot be advanced, and that the visit was intended to "shatter the lies of the winter campaign" that claims a humanitarian crisis caused by Israel. The visit is part of a broader diplomatic effort by Danon, which last week included a tour of ambassadors at Auschwitz.
