# Dual-use goods into Gaza

Cement, pipes, electronics: goods with both civilian and military uses. Israel says inspections exist because Hamas has built tunnels from items on the same list.

Dual-use means a bag of cement can be a house or a tunnel. A pipe can carry water or form a rocket body. Israel says it inspects because Hamas has used goods for both purposes for years.

Israel describes slow inspection as a security measure, not a famine policy. In its account it is the last stage of a war against an armed group that takes aid and builds under hospitals.

The film’s soldiers describe the other end: a tunnel that used to be a truck. COGAT’s desk is the paperwork; the rooftop is the night.
