So the IDF found sleeping quarters and rockets in an 800-meter tunnel—this is exactly why Israel has to be vigilant. You don't build something like that for "peaceful purposes." 🇮🇳 We know from our own border challenges how costly these tunnels can be.

Good military operation, but where does it end? The tunnel destroyed today will be replaced tomorrow. We need a political solution—not just airstrikes. India knows this from decades of insurgency management.

As a mother, I can't help but think about the children in Gaza who grow up amid this constant destruction. đź’” Tunnels for war, not for schools or hospitals. Both sides need to break this cycle. India's pluralism should guide us toward a more compassionate view.

Respect for IDF's surgical precision, but I can't ignore the humanitarian cost. Gaza is an open-air prison—30,000+ dead? This tunnel find means nothing if it doesn't lead to peace talks. India should push for de-escalation diplomatically.

800 meters of tunnel with sleeping quarters and rocket launchers—that's a small military base underground. Israel has every right to defend itself, just like we do across the LoC. 🛡️ Those who condemn don't understand living under terror threats.
