ISRAEL'S $55 BILLION TUNNEL THROUGH GAZA

As tensions continue to escalate in Israel, the spotlight has once again fallen on a long-debated mega project that could alter the geopolitical landscape of the region. Amidst this backdrop, the Suez Canal, an engineering marvel that facilitates the passage of 10% of the world's maritime cargo, stands as a testament to human ingenuity and economic strategy. This vital waterway, linking the Eastern Mediterranean to the Red Sea, serves as a crucial artery for global trade, connecting Europe and Asia in a seamless flow of goods and energy. Yet, whispers of a potential rival canal, spearheaded by Israel, have surfaced, promising to redraw the lines of maritime dominance and perhaps, the very contours of regional power.
