BREAKING: Kann investigation reveals another lie that was used to sabotage a deal. “The ‘Tunnel That Wasn’t’ – The Truth Behind the Image from Philadelphi.” In the investigation of Zman Emet on Kan 11, Avi Amit reveals the truth behind this image. The image was circulated during the height of Israel’s internal debate over the Philadelphi Corridor and the hostage deal. It turns out it wasn’t a tunnel at all, but a trench covered with dirt. Israel’s former Defense Minister Gallant says to Avi Amit: A tunnel that never existed — but was marketed as such to prevent a hostage deal. Here, in the photo, you can see it more clearly: a trench that was promoted as a tunnel penetrating dozens of meters deep, exaggerating the importance of the Philadelphi Corridor and delaying the hostage deal.
