[Rudaw] A Rudaw team has found a tunnel in Shingal, fitted with lights and electricity, that was under construction to protect bigwigs of the Islamic State
...formerly ISIS or ISIL, depending on your preference. Before that al-Qaeda in Iraq, as shaped by Abu Musab Zarqawi.

"They dug this tunnel to protect themselves, they have constructed this tunnel differently," said one of the PKK fighters.
Video about five minutes long with English subtitles can be seen at the link.
