Inside the Gaza Tunnels: Children Digging for Hamas | 2008 | ENDEVR Documentary Watch 'The World's Most Enduring Conflict: Meet the People of Israel and Palestine' here: Most of Hamas' weapons are smuggled into Gaza through tunnels from Egypt. These tunnels are at the heart of the conflict with Israel. Children usually dig these tunnels, aware they are in constant danger. Every night, 14-year-old Said scrambles down a narrow shaft leading to a tunnel. He'll spend the next eight hours digging without a break. It's claustrophobic, difficult work. The heat in the tunnel is unbearable and the more they advance, the harder it becomes to breathe. At any moment, the tunnel could come crashing down, burying them alive. That's not the only danger. “Sometimes the Egyptians shoot gas into the tunnel that might kill us“, states Ramdan. “There are risks of electric shocks and the Israelis might bomb the entrance“. Since Hamas seized control of Gaza, the borders have been closed. The tunnels are the only way to import goods into the territory. “They're a gold mine!“ states Said. But to his disgust, most of the profits go to other people. “We do all the work, then they swindle us“, he complains. Once the tunnel is nearly ready, “other people will open it, do the trafficking and make more money than us“. The money he does make will enable Said to support his entire family. But every time he goes into the tunnel, he knows: “You are digging your own grave“. ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ Subscribe to ENDEVR for free: Facebook: Instagram: ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ #FreeDocumentary #ENDEVR #gaza #gazatunnels #hamas ▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬▬ ENDEVR explains our world through high-class documentaries, special investigations, explainer videos, and animations.
