A spokesman for the Israeli military said they would provide video of the tunnel shaft in the enormous hole, but never did.

Instead, the IDF provided drone footage that showed two other tunnel entrances – one of which CNN entered – near the cemetery. CNN geolocated the tunnel entrances using footage filmed on the ground, as well as satellite imagery, and found that neither was in the cemetery grounds.

The Israeli military stood by its claims, insisting in a press release that a tunnel ran directly through the religious site.

But that press release also undermined Goldfuss’ claim that the underground command center was directly below the cemetery. A map released by the military placed the command center outside the graveyard.

    They have conquered Al Shifa two months ago. There was so much talk about this supposed command center being run in tunnels under the hospital. Two months they’ve been there and we’ve seen exactly zero proof for their claims. Why would we believe Israel now then?

    EDIT: I see I’m getting downvoted. Might I ask why? What’s wrong with what I’ve said above?
