The IDF destroyed a two-kilometer-long terror tunnel in Beit Lahiya, in the northern Gaza Strip, the military confirmed on Sunday.
Soldiers from the Gaza Division's Northern Brigade, along with Yahalom Combat Engineers, located and destroyed the tunnel amid ongoing operations to remove terrorist infrastructure in the area.
The soldiers will continue their counterterrorism operations in the region, the military added.
This development follows Saturday's confirmation that the military struck and destroyed a tunnel in northern Gaza that contained a rocket launcher that was loaded and ready to fire at the southern Israeli city of Sderot.
