Help Keep Israel Safe - Please act today
Dear Friend of Israel,
Hamas has spent millions of dollars building massive networks of underground tunnels to infiltrate Israel and attack Israelis.
These tunnels were dug deep underground by terrorists committed to kidnapping and killing Israelis. Many were built beneath homes, schools, hospitals and mosques, using Palestinian civilians as human shields to protect the tunnel entrances.
Tunnel detection technology developed and funded with the help of the United States has enabled Israel to destroy more than 50 of these tunnels to date. But the threat of terror tunnels persists.
On Tuesday, Hamas prevented a UN team of experts from working near a tunnel discovered this May near a school run by the United Nations Relief and Works Agency (UNRWA).
Because Hamas would not allow the UN team to examine the area—to confirm it was clear of explosives or other dangers—UNRWA said the school and another nearby (serving 4,000 students) would not be allowed to reopen.
With help from supporters like you, we can continue to work with Congress to strengthen U.S.-Israel strategic cooperation and deliver critical security assistance for technologies like tunnel detection programs that help keep Israel safe.
This year alone, the House passed $47.5 million for U.S.-Israel anti-tunnel technology cooperation. But we must keep working with Congress to ensure this type of vital support continues.
