How Mossad Suffocated a Ghost Army Using The Mediterranean

Описание: In December 2023, the Israel Defense Forces launched a bold and controversial initiative codenamed Project Atlantis. By installing high-capacity industrial pumps along the Mediterranean coast, the military aimed to flood the sprawling ""Gaza Metro""—a tunnel network estimated to span over 500 kilometers. The strategic goal was to force militants to the surface, neutralize underground infrastructure with seawater corrosion, and bypass the lethal risks of subterranean urban warfare.
Despite its ambitious engineering, the project delivered marginal results. Hamas had spent two decades equipping its tunnels with watertight blast doors and reinforced barriers designed to isolate flooding segments. Furthermore, Gaza’s porous, sandy soil caused much of the water to dissipate before reaching the deeper levels, leaving roughly 80% of the network intact. The operation exposed a significant rift between military commanders seeking rapid results and engineers who warned of the technical and geological barriers.
Beyond its limited tactical success, Project Atlantis left a troubling legacy of environmental and humanitarian concerns. Hydrologists warned that the massive injection of seawater risked irreversibly contaminating the coastal aquifer, the primary source of drinking water for over two million people. Additionally, the uncertainty regarding the location of hostages created a profound moral dilemma, as the very waters meant to drown the enemy threatened to submerge the captives hidden within the same labyrinth.
