Explosion in Gaza injures 3 at reported Hamas military site
 [IsraelTimes] Online pictures show black smoke rising near Rafah from apparent training accident.
| And a pretty picture it is, too. Click on the headline to see for yourself, dear Reader. |
Three men were maimed by an kaboom near the southern Gazoo Strip town of Rafah on Monday, the Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth",-run health ministry said, in what appeared to be an accident at a terror training camp.
| One hopes for instant and multiple deaths from these red wire/green wire incidents, but serious maimings ought not be rejected when they present themselves. |
Hamas-affiliated media in the Strip said the kaboom occurred in a site belonging to the terror group’s military wing, but gave no further details.
| I suspect many at Rantburg can provide as much in the way of detail as the most bloodthirsty might desire... |
Gazoo Health Ministry spokesperson Ashraf al-Qidre said in a statement that "three men sustained varied levels of injuries resulting from an accident near Tel a-Sultan, west of Rafah."
| "Mohammed broke a fingernail, Mahmoud lost half his brain, and Nabil need no longer worry about getting his girlfriend pregnant," |
Hamas, which is openly committed to the destruction of the Jewish state, is engaged in training its fighters, builds rockets and digs tunnels in preparation for another round of conflict with Israel.
The Paleostinian news site Palinfo posted a picture on Twitter it said was smoke rising into the sky from the location of the kaboom.
Last year, 22 members of Hamas’s armed wing were killed while "preparing equipment," the majority in a string of tunnel collapses, the terror group said.
| This number does not include the number of small boy diggers buried farther down the tunnel at the same time, poor little mites. |
