 A Palestinian militant was killed and two others were wounded when explosives they were handling blew up prematurely in the Gaza Strip early on Saturday, Palestinian medical and security sources said. A Palestinian security source said a militant from the Islamic Hamas group was killed in what he described as a "work accident", when an explosive device blew up prematurely outdoors in the northern Gaza Strip. The Hamas group identified the man who died as a 21-year-old field commander and said he was killed doing his "jihadic duty". It said he had been manning a Hamas position near the Jewish Elei Sinai settlement but gave no further details.
