Graphic video shows a Hamas terrorist being killed inside a tunnel in northern Gaza — as well as the bodies of several others lying in the narrow corridor.

The footage released by the Israel Defense Forces and the Shin Bet security agency appears to show a camera being lowered into the tunnel, where a terrorist touches the device before being shot or hit by a blast.

Another clip then shows several dead terrorists piled inside the narrow, darkened corridor.

The terrorists were killed in recent days by the elite Yahalom unit of the combat engineering corps using “diverse means” in a “significant” tunnel, the Times of Israel reported.

Meanwhile, the IDF on Friday took over and destroyed the headquarters of the terror group’s Shejaia Battalion in Gaza City and advanced farther into Khan Yunis in the southern end of the enclave, the Jerusalem Post reported.

During the operation, the IDF killed more terrorists and destroyed a tunnel shaft where one was hiding and trying to throw explosives at Israeli troops.

The headquarters was destroyed by airstrikes, tank fire, and the engineering forces.

Troops from the 414th Field Intelligence Battalion also used for the first time a “Maoz” (Spike Firefly) urban combat kamikaze drone to expose and strike a terrorist cell in the area, the outlet reported.
