US EditionItalian Researchers Claim Second 'Hidden City' Beneath Giza Pyramids
- In March 2025, a team of Italian researchers reported vast underground structures beneath the Khafre pyramid near Cairo, Egypt.
- This claim followed earlier findings of similar shafts under the smaller Menkaure pyramid, suggesting linked subterranean pillars beneath both monuments.
- Radar specialist Filippo Biondi stated tomography data show a 90 percent probability that the pillars under Menkaure mirror those beneath Khafre, indicating a dense tunnel network.

- If confirmed, the findings could rewrite history by revealing a colossal subterranean complex linked to the Giza pyramids and a lost civilization possibly wiped out 38,000 years ago.
