According to the Palestinian Information Center (PIC) a senior Egyptian engineer -on condition of anonymity- said that the wall is fully supervised by American military engineers, adding that the blueprints of the wall were prepared about six months ago and its construction started three months ago amid tight security.

He affirmed that there is a huge main pipe extending 10 kilometers from the sea in the west toward the east and branching into other perforated pipes directed towards the Palestinian side, where it will be used to pump salt water directly from the sea into the branch pipes planted in the ground in order to cause cracks and landslides leading to the destruction of Gaza tunnels.

On his part, Baha Al-Madhoun, the head of the Palestinian union of administrative employees, called on the Egyptian government to stop building the steel wall on Gaza borders so as not be a partner in the "Israeli" blockade on Gaza people and in the killing of children and women.

This came during a massive rally organized Tuesday by the alliance of Palestinian trade unions outside the UN headquarters in Gaza city in protest at the "Israeli" siege and Egypt's steel wall.

Meanwhile, Egyptian authorities on Tuesday afternoon bombed three tunnels used for taking in humanitarian needs on its borders with Gaza without any reported casualties.

The tunnels so far are the only "vein" through which the Palestinians in the besieged Gaza Strip could stay alive, as "Israel" has been imposing a siege on the enclave.
