The IDF spokesman to the foreign media revealed the cause of the explosion today in Gaza

News 0404, 08/23/2022

Earlier today (Tuesday) it was reported in Gaza about an explosion for unknown reasons inside a house. According to the reports, the explosion resulted in deaths, including a child, and many injuries on the spot. The Arabs tried to hide the cause of the explosion and some even claimed that it was an assassination attributed to Israel, but the IDF spokesman for foreign media revealed in a tweet on Twitter that it was weapons that were stored insecurely in a terrorist's house, exploded and resulted in the death of a child and other casualties.

The IDF spokesman for foreign media said: "Another tragedy in the Gaza Strip today. Weapons stored unsafely in the house of a member of a Palestinian terrorist group exploded and killed a young child in the vicinity. These are the sad consequences of militarizing civilian areas for terrorist activity." https://www.0404.co.il/?p=832819

The PA and Hamas will blame the IDF and the media will run with it.

I’ve seen a few video clips of very young children shooting
AK-47 type weapons into the air over there. The gun handling
was alarming to say the least.

Makes me wonder if this is what was actually taking place.

A child was playing with the guns?

Sure thing. And when the AP/CNN/BBC will find out the truth they will describe it as “according to the IDF”, but in deaths toll these media outlets report what Hamas says as supposed “facts”, without commentary...

I agree. In their schools and media, Israel and the West
area depicted as animals in disgusting ways.

This they are taught since birth.

This is why I do not support people from certain nations
being allowed to come here in any elevated way.

Good thing he didn’t have documents or that would have been a real threat.

Sadly. As www.palwatch.org and www.memri.org document constantly.

Yeah, I’m sure they do. It needs to be done.

“A child was playing with the guns?”

Firearm ammunition usually doesn’t explode in any massive way. More likely a grenade, landmine, RPG warhead or some kind of IED making material.

I would agree with that.

Kids may have still been involved. Improper storage or
simply playing may have been involved.

I have no way of knowing. I just have a hard time thinking
adults would set that off. I will say, the way those folks
act at times, it’s not out of the question.

Thanks for the comments.

IIRC, years ago, the IDF used to run “Work Accident Teams” through the Palestinian areas with equipment that would induce a current in the detonator of an assembled IED and set it off. Took out a few bombers that way.

Was this a case of an “MVE” gone wild?

...weapons that were stored insecurely in a terrorist's house...

They found out he was a terrorist after he blowed up real good?

Oh interesting. Thanks for the mention. I believe that’s
the first I had heard of this.
