The Israel Defence Forces have given CBC News an official explanation for the destruction of a cemetery holding the remains of 22 Canadian soldiers who died serving as peacekeepers in the Middle East in the 1950s and '60s. The IDF says they were destroying a Hamas tunnel. An officer said the IDF had dug to a depth of 20 to 30 metres and could not give any assurance that human remains had been protected or preserved.
