Israel successfully tests system designed to detect militants tunnels

A system designed to detect infiltration tunnels proved successful in laboratory tests for the first time ever and is now being tested in the field, a senior Israeli officer said.
If the field test proves successful, the system can be deployed around the Gaza Strip within approximately one year, the officer added.
The officer said that the Israel is also working to improve the Iron Dome. It is believed that, in the future, Israel's enemies will try to overcome the rocket defense system by launching a number of missiles and rockets at the same time, including more advanced projectiles that can reach a greater height than those previously fired from Gaza. Among the improvements being worked on is giving the Iron Dome the ability to intercept rockets over enemy territory, before they enter Israel.
