The shaft that leads to the tunnel where the bodies of the hostages Carmel Gat, the late Aden Yerushalmi, the late Hirsch Goldberg-Polin, the late Alexander Lubnov, the late Almog Serosi, and the late Sergeant Uri Danino were found next to Dolls and murals of cartoon characters in a children's yard.

The forces of Division 162 and the Shin Bet located the shaft that leads to the tunnel in an area surrounded by the enemy and full of traps. This is another example of Hamas's cynical use of civilian space for terrorist activity.
