Blast in Hamas Compound in Gaza Wounds Five Children
(AP) Ibrahim Barzak - A powerful explosion ripped through a Hamas military compound in a densely crowded neighborhood in Rafah in Gaza on Wednesday, wounding five children, three women and five others, Hamas said. The Gaza-based Palestinian Center for Human Rights has repeatedly called on Hamas not to store explosives in civilian areas. Internal explosions are common, with bombs and rockets going off prematurely. A similar explosion in August wounded 58 people and destroyed seven houses.
