Hamas fighter dies in Gaza tunnel incident
2017-09-20
[IsraelTimes] Terror group confirms death of a member of its armed wing near Rafah; two others died in tunnel collapses five days ago

A Hamas, a contraction of the Arabic words for "frothing at the mouth", member died in a tunnel incident in the southern Gazoo Strip overnight the Paleostinian terror organization, which controls the territory, said on Tuesday.

This was the third such incident in recent days.

A statement from Hamas’s armed wing the Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades named the dead man as 24-year-old Hani Faraj Mohammed Shalouf, from the town of Rafah, located in the southern Gazoo Strip.

Shalouf "met his maker as a martyr while working on a tunnel belonging to the resistance," the statement said, referring to Hamas.

The tunnel in which Shalouf died was located in Rafah on the southern border with Egypt, the statement said.

A statement from the Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories Yoav Mordechai said that Shalouf had been electrocuted to death.

The Qassam Brigades published images of the Shalouf on their website.
