Gaza: Al-Quds Brigades claim blast targeting Israeli tank
2010-06-10
[Ma'an] The Al-Quds Brigades, the military wing of the Islamic Jihad movement, said Wednesday that combatants detonated an explosive device toward an Israeli military tank east of Khan Younis, southern Gaza.

A statement issued by the group said the tank was patrolling east of the Abasan area when the blast occurred, with members filming the assault.

The attack, the statement read, was an "assurance that the Al-Quds Brigades will always continue jihad against the occupation."

The Israeli army said "militants detonated an explosive device against IDF [Israeli army] soldiers near the security fence in the southern Gaza Strip," with a representative confirming that a tank was targeted, causing damage.
