Hamas commander said killed in Gaza explosion
 [IsraelTimes] Group gives no info on circumstances of blast in Rafah, which may have been an operational accident.A Hamas, always the voice of sweet reason, field commander was killed Wednesday night and two other operatives injured in a blast in the southern Gazoo city of Rafah, officials in the Hamas-controlled Strip said. The circumstances of the kaboom were note made clear, but may have been an accident during one of the terror group’s operations. Several Hamas operatives have been killed and injured in accidental blasts and tunnel collapses in recent months. Hamas is engaged in training its fighters, building rockets and digging tunnels in preparation for another round of conflict with Israel. Israel and Hamas have fought three wars since 2008. Gazoo bully boyz have dug dozens of tunnels, many reaching under the border into Israel, to launch attacks inside the Jewish state. While Israel destroyed many of them during the summer 2014 war, it says Hamas has since been rebuilding the network, and Hamas has bragged about doing so. 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. Posted by: trailing wife 2017-06-08 |
