It is reported that as a result of the operation Israeli sappers killed about eight people, 14 more were injured and had to move to the side of the Sector. In the region itself it was reported that the tunnel belonged to the militant organization "Islamic Jihad".

The Islamists said that the truce, which was informally agreed upon by the two sides from now on, is not working, and that the militants will respond to any provocative actions by the Israeli military.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu also warned that Israel would destroy anyone who considered violating the country's sovereignty.

As reported in "URA-Inform," Palestine recently filed a lawsuit against Israel in the International Court of Justice in The Hague.
