Israel considering flooding Hamas’ underground tunnel network with salt water: report 
Allie Griffin / NEW YORK POST

Israel is considering flooding Hamas’ underground network of tunnels in Gaza with ocean water as part of its plan to completely decimate the terrorist group that rules over the Palestinian territory, according to a report.

The Israel Defense Forces assembled at least five pumps that could be used to draw water from the Mediterranean Sea to flush out the tunnels within a matter of weeks, US officials told the Wall Street Journal.

The military completed the system, built about one mile north of the Al-Shati refugee camp, around the middle of last month, according to the paper. Each pump has the power to move thousands of cubic meters of water per hour into at least 800 tunnels used by Hamas to move through Gaza without detection.

Israel hasn’t decided on whether to deploy the pumps, which could threaten Gaza’s already scarce water supply and infrastructure, the officials said. It’s also unclear if the Jewish nation would flood the tunnels before the release or rescue of the remaining Israeli hostages, who are likely being held in the underground areas.

'Stop Being A Keyboard Warrior': DeSantis Ramps Up The Pressure On Trump To Debate
Scott Morefield / Townhall Tipsheet
 
Republican presidential candidate and Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis turned up the heat on former President Donald Trump to debate, challenging the front-runner to a one-on-one matchup during a Monday night appearance on Fox News' "The Ingraham Angle."
 
"Donald Trump wants to blame me," DeSantis told host Laura Ingraham, responding to a question about Trump seeming to blame DeSantis for undefeated ACC champ Florida State being left out of the College Football Playoff. The former president called the snubbing the result of "bad lobbying" on the part of DeSantis in a Monday Truth Social post.

The Florida governor went on to cite previous Trump criticisms before challenging him to debate "one-on-one."

"He also took Disney’s side against us when we stood up for the kids," DeSantis continued. "He also said Cuomo in New York did COVID better than we did, then attacked me for being pro-life. Maybe that’s the reason we should have a debate on your show, Laura. Stop being a keyboard warrior and let's step up and debate one-on-one. He's had a lot to say about me over the last year. Say it to my face. I'm game." Read more, see Xs and video here.
