AP photographer Kevin Frayer spent time with tunnel diggers under Gaza. Now that Hamas and Egypt are getting media savvy, it’s little surprise the smugglers are throwing their spin into the mix. Frayer’s dispatch is excellent. View a slide show of his shots here.
A Palestinian tunnel digger works a pulley as another is passed a rocket launcher at the entrance to a smuggling tunnel in Rafah, in the southern Gaza Strip, on the border with Egypt, in this photo taken late Wednesday, Aug. 1, 2007. In underground darkness with stifling heat and limited air supply, Gazans are finding an antidote to their growing isolation: digging tunnels under their border with Egypt to smuggle everything from weapons to cigarettes to people.
