US intel indicates only 30-35% of Hamas fighters killed, 65% of tunnels are intact – report

US intelligence indicates that only 30-35 percent of Hamas fighters have been killed since October 7, and around 65% of the terror group’s tunnels are still intact, Politico reports.

The outlet also says that US officials believe that Hamas has recruited thousands of new members in recent months. The report does not clarify if these individuals are thought to have become members of the terror group’s active fighting forces.

The outlet says these factors are helping to inform recent decisions by the Biden administration vis-à-vis Gaza.
