Abu Jamil Street plot

Four young Palestinian men are filmed digging the underground tunnels under Abu Jamil Street in Rafah, near the border between the Gaza Strip and Egypt. Continuing fear of the police, collapse, bombings and dust lungs does not stop the foursome from jokingly making their way through the earth, on their way to the Egyptian traders in food and cigarettes. For example, the dire situation looks more like a prank than a desperate attempt.
