THE IDF has released shocking footage of the moment a huge blast wipes out Hamas terror tunnels in the Gaza Strip.
The giant explosion is immediately followed by a huge mushroom cloud of dust that fills the sky to signal the catastrophic devastation.
In the blink of an eye, a still setting is soon lit up in red and orange flames as the missile strike hits.
The impact is so strong that even the footage appears to shake.
As soon as the flames appear, they are quickly replaced by waves of ash and dust from obliterated buildings.
Despite another Gaza neighbourhood being completely wiped out, the IDF claimed it struck a Hamas stronghold.

Israel continues to target the hidden network of tunnels lying beneath Gaza City that contain top Hamas officials and their operations.
The latest blast is part of those continued attempts to wipe out the terrorist group.
The secret operation beneath Gaza City, known as the Hamas Officials Square, links hidden apartments and leadership offices for senior leaders of Hamas.
The IDF are currently on the hunt for Yahya Sinwar, one of Hamas’ senior militants who has evaded Israeli capture twice in just days.

He’s been escaping through the terror network’s tunnels, according to claims, as the IDF continue the chase.
Sinwar, dubbed “Gaza’s Bin Laden”, is being hunted in the south of the Strip in what Israel described as “the new capital of terror”.
The Hamas chief, according to Israel’s Channel 13 quoting intelligence sources, is reportedly on the move constantly in an attempt to dodge capture and assassination.
It comes after Israel captured Hamas’s “Elite Quarter”, including the complex terror tunnels used by the leaders of the terrorist group, on Wednesday.
IDF troops announced they secured the area in the centre of Gaza with one of the houses believed to belong to Sinwar.
Hamas also recently rejected a week-long ceasefire offer that Israel hoped would secure the release of the last women and children held captive.
The initial agreement is off the table despite Israel’s recent battlefield gains.
