PALI TERRORISTS BUILDING UNDERGROUND CITY IN GAZA

Gazans building 'underground city': Israeli army chief (AFP)
Palestinian militants are constructing an "underground city" in the Gaza Strip to store weapons and attack Israeli forces in the future, army chief of staff Dan Halutz has been quoted as saying. "The Palestinians are continuing digging an underground city in the Gaza Strip," said Halutz, who appeared before the parliament's foreign affairs and defence committee on Tuesday. "They are constructing tunnels in the urban parts in order to confront our forces," a member of the committee quoted Halutz as saying. ..

Halutz was quoted as telling committee members that the army had discovered and destroyed 15 tunnels in the Gaza Strip during an operation along Gaza's border with Egypt, through which Israel claims large quantities of weapons are being smuggled.
