Israel on Tuesday announced the completion of its new 40-mile-long concrete security barrier along the Gaza border designed to confront threats from above and below.
Israel has spent the last 3.5 years building the enhanced security fence. It includes a naval barrier, a network of underground sensors to stop Gaza terror groups from constructing underground tunnels, and a 6.5-yard high “smart fence” with sensors and cameras.
You can see Israeli defense minister Benny Gantz alongside several officers and politicians cutting a ribbon to inaugurate the wall. You can see smiles and faces full of pride as they celebrate erecting yet another monument of oppression, siege, and collective punishment. pic.twitter.com/wn2CqcdMdM
