(Globes) Yuval Azulai - Following lessons learned in the fighting in Gaza last summer, the Israel Defense Forces is preparing to train all its infantry in tunnel warfare using simulators that present soldiers with different scenarios, including detecting the tunnels, advancing through them, the complex and dangerous fighting within them, the complete mapping of their route, and their controlled destruction. Six months after the fighting, Hamas is preoccupied with preparing for the next round against Israel and is digging new offensive tunnels. Training in underground warfare will take place at ten special facilities now under construction. By the end of the year, all the soldiers likely to take part in future fighting in Gaza will have received training in tunnel warfare.
