[IsraelTimes] An explosion rips through a Hamas site in the central Gaza Strip, Palestinian authorities say, killing one member of the terrorist group and seriously wounding another.The Gaza-based interior ministry does not reveal the cause of the blast, but says it killed Ashraf Hussein, a member of Hamas’ military wing, the Qassam Brigades.
The Qassam Brigades acknowledges that Hussein was killed in what the group describes as an accidental explosion.
There was no information about what kind of terrorist facility was affected in Deir al-Balah, central Gaza Strip, or about the extent of damage caused. Gaza’s Hamas rulers have a number of training sites and underground facilities used for manufacturing weapons and storing raw rocket material. Accidental explosions have been reported in the past at bomb laboratories and munitions storehouses.
