According to Doron Kadosh’s report on Galai Tzahal (IDF Radio), these tracks were used to move weapons in wagon-like vehicles into Gaza.

The tracks facilitated the transport of significant quantities of arms, revealing the scale of the smuggling operation. IDF sources indicated that tunnel destruction efforts are ongoing, with some areas still under investigation. There are also sections of the Philadelphi Corridor where drilling is incomplete, suggesting that additional smuggling tunnels may yet be discovered.
