Bulldozers and diggers work on the Egyptian side of the border with the southern Gaza Strip town of Rafah, Sep. 1, 2015. Egypt has renewed its military campaign by digging up tunnels along its border with the Gaza Strip for a military-operated fish farm, which would end the use of the tunnels smugglers have used since the Islamic militant group Hamas took control of Gaza in 2007 and stamp out militant activity along the border.
