Gaza Strip smuggling tunnels

LOTS of tunnels
[edit]I was suprised that this page doesn't talk about how many tunnels there are. An ABC article from Aug. 23, 2009 quotes the Sheriff of Nogales, Arizona as saying...
"Since 1990, the US Border Patrol has found 109 tunnels along the border with Mexico, all in California and Arizona. Sixty-five -- or 60 percent -- have been found in Nogales, with 16 of those discovered in the past nine months."

The way our page reads now, you might get the impression that tunnel discoveries are rare. 75.88.232.62 (talk) 19:14, 8 December 2009 (UTC)
Imported text
[edit]I have imported a text section which was deleted from the survey article Tunnel because it gave WP:UNDUE weight there. It is now added to the section "Derby tunnel", but commented out. The added material needs to be copyedit merged into the existing coverage of the same topic here. Reify-tech (talk) 14:20, 17 August 2014 (UTC)
