Israeli Defense Forces (IDF) discovered the bodies of six hostages, including an American, in a 65-foot-deep tunnel in Rafah, Gaza. The tunnel, concealed beneath a children's play area decorated with Disney characters and stuffed animals, was used by Hamas to hide the hostages. The hostages were held for over 300 days and were tortured before being executed with a bullet to the head by Hamas. This discovery highlights Hamas's use of civilian infrastructure, including children's rooms, to shield their activities.
