A Palestinian was killed and another 16 were wounded on Saturday in an early mysterious morning explosion at a house owned by a Hamas member in Gaza City, medics and witnesses said.
Dr. Muawiya Hassanein, the head of Gaza emergency services, confirmed the incident, adding that medics had not yet identified the person who died. Witnesses said the house belonged to Nadir Abu Shaaban, a member of the Islamist Hamas movement which has ruled Gaza for nearly a year.

The cause of the explosion was not yet known, but several Gazans have been killed and wounded in recent years by accidental explosions while constructing or handling crude homemade rockets and other weapons in the war-torn territory. |
