Hamas releases video Tuesday that purports to show militants emerging from a tunnel and attacking Israeli soldiers.

It could not be independently verified by Reuters.

At first, Hamas militants appear to run through a desert landscape before sneaking up on an Israeli military post.

It is said to be in Nahal Oz, in southern Israel.

A red circle highlights what appears to be an Israeli soldier as seen through a gate.

Militants open fire and storm the watch tower compound.

They appear to attack and shoot men on the ground.

A Hamas leader said in a voiceover message during the TV broadcast that Palestinians would continue confronting Israel until its blockade on Gaza was lifted.

The Israeli Army has confirmed that four soldiers were killed in an attack at Nahal Oz, Israel, on Monday.
