Work accident!

From Ma'an:

Four Palestinian fighters were reported killed in an accidental explosion east of Jabaliya in the northern Gaza Strip late Thursday.

Ministry of Health spokesman Ashraf al-Qidra said that the four bodies had been taken to Kamal Adwan Hospital in the Gaza Strip following the explosion, which took place on land.

No information was immediately available regarding the political or military affiliations of the fighters.

Of course, for the "work accidents" that must have happened over the past few weeks, the victims were counted as "civilians" who were killed by Israel.

Dozens of terrorists were killed in "work accidents" this year before the Gaza fighting. And that was when they weren't in a hurry to put their booby traps and rockets together.

Add together the "work accidents," collaborator murders, double-counted deaths, natural deaths counted as killed, those killed in secondary explosions,  those killed from the hundreds of Hamas rockets that fell short, and those killed by Hamas mortars aimed at the IDF, and chances are good that the official death toll is as much as a couple hundred over the reality.
