"There aren't any tunnels around here, we are not resistance," she said. Yet not more than 20 feet away from Najah, there was just such a tunnel, which Israeli troops had unearthed.

Inside it was shored up with timbers and concrete.A case of "eyewitness" lying, or a case of Hamas knowingly putting civilians at risk?
