1 injured, 2 missing as Egypt pumps sewage into Gaza tunnel
2011-09-27
GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- One Palestinian man was injured on Sunday and two others were reported missing after Egyptian authorities pumped sewage inside a Rafah smuggling tunnel running underneath the border with the Gaza Strip, medics said.
Ewwww. What's that smell?
I thought it was you.
I thought it was you.
Uh-oh...GLUG GLUG GLUG GLUG

Palestinian medical sources told Ma'an that a tunnel worker was hurt and two others went missing inside the Rafah tunnel as a result of sewage pumped in from the Egyptian side.
Well, are we gonna go down there and look for them?
Ummmmmm...no. I'm sure they'll turn up.

"Yo, Mahmoud, we got a floater here!"
Two Palestinians were killed and three others injured on Saturday after a gas canister exploded in a smuggling tunnel in the southern Gaza Strip, medics said.
Got a light, Mahmoud?
Why, sur...BOOM!

Egyptian security officials said in early September that they were cracking down on the network of tunnels used by smugglers from the coastal enclave.

Medics say over 160 Palestinians have died in the network of underground tunnels since Israel imposed a siege on the Gaza Strip in 2006.

Under Israel's crippling blockade, the tunnels have provided a lifeline for residents of the coastal enclave.
Oooooh...crippling.
