Israeli plan to flood Hamas tunnels with a nerve agent. [Al-Mashhad المشهد Oct. 28]
The video link is no longer available on the republished Arabic
site of Al-Mashhad, but it can still be accessed on YouTube.
For the liberation of hostages, being hidden in 'Ghaza Metro', the legendary underground system of Hamas tunnels comprising some 500 km, Israel plans to flood these tunnels with a nerve agent intended to 'immobilize' Hamas fighters for some hours. The operation should be under supervision of US special forces. This is what Al-Jazeera and Middle East Eye MEE have already reported. In the video of Al-Mashhad the gassing of Hamas fighters is being compared with the nerve gas attack on 'Tokyo Metro' using Sarin in 1995.
Whether the deployment of German special forces to the region (i.e. on Cyprus), reported by Deutsche Welle on Oct. 28, is related to the joint Israeli-US operation, remains unknown up to now.
