The Israel Defense Forces who head started the operation to destroy trail of tunnels stretching from South of Lebanon to North Israel, expressed their admiration for the erudite Musk.

The IDF on Twitter extended their praises for Musk's SpaceX and The Boring Company for digging tunnels and building rockets, something they said even the militant group Hezbollah does, but for reasons to kill Israel civilians.
