PA Sources: Two Hamas Members Killed in Gaza City Explosion
2006-07-05
(IsraelNN.com) Palestinian Authority sources report that there were two people killed in an explosion in a private apartment in Gaza City earlier today. Initial reports indicated that three had been killed.

The PA sources further said that those killed in the blast were members of the Hamas's Izz A-Din Al-Kassam Brigades. They died while attempting to prepare an explosive device for use in attacks on Israeli targets.
Another 'work accident' claim for Mutual of Gaza. Next story may or may not be the same 'accident'.

2 Palestinians killed in Gaza explosion
Two Palestinians were killed on Wednesday in an explosion in a house in the Zeitun neighborhood of Gaza City, Palestinian eyewitnesses said. The explosion ripped through the house of the Dahdouh family whose sons are members of the Islamic Jihad. Two family members were killed in an Israeli air strike.

The IDF has denied involvement while Palestinian sources said the explosion was caused by a work accident. Three people were critically injured in the explosion. The sources added the two brothers were probably preparing an explosive device which prematurely detonated.

#13  LGF has a link to story where a carload of Al-Jizz reporters mysteriously explodes:

Conflicting reports gave different causes to an explosion that struck a car carrying reporters from the Al-Jazeera satellite TV channel on Wednesday night in Beit Lahiya.

According to witnesses, there were apparently some injuries, and ambulances were on the way to the scene.

The IDF had no immediate comment, except to point out that it was uncertain what caused the explosion.

#1  FOX NEWS' news-ticker reports Hamas officials stating that the explosion was caused by mishandling of explosive materials.

In other words, it is a wrok-place accident.
