Militant Truck Explodes in Gaza
A truck carrying weapons and masked Hamas militants exploded at a rally in Gaza today, killing ten Palestinians, including two children, and wounding more than 85 people.
The cause of the blast, which is the first fatal event since the withdrawal of Israeli settlers from the territory, was unclear. Hamas militants blamed Israeli aircraft for the incident but witnesses blamed fighters for mishandling explosives.
After the explosion, men carried body parts and lifeless bodies wrapped in blankets to nearby cars. The dead and wounded were taken to nearby hospitals, which were overwhelmed.
