GAZA CITY — A member of a Gaza armed group was killed Saturday and six more wounded in an explosion as they were learning to make bombs, the group said.
“The explosion occurred during a training session in bomb making,” said a statement from the Izzeddine Al Qassem Brigades, the military wing of the Islamist Hamas movement that controls Gaza.
The blast took place at a house in the southern town of Rafah, on the Egyptian border.
Earlier, witnesses had said that most of the injured, including two seriously hurt, were “activists”.
