Hamas booby traps are killing and injuring Gazans - and they are blaming Israel

Ultra Palestine reports on explosions in Gaza since the ceasefire. It says they are all from Israeli muitions, but the details sound more like Hamas booby-traps.

Ezz El-Din Hijazi (23 years old), one of the victims of the occupation’s remnants, sustained injuries to his face and parts of his body, and a broken foot, as a result of the explosion of what he describes as a “foreign object” in the city of Rafah.

Hijazi was helping a relative retrieve some belongings from his destroyed home in the West Rafah area when he saw a child playing with a strange object that he says looked like “a water regulator with a small light bulb in it.” He added that he feared for the child, so he pulled it away and threw it away. A short while later, an explosion occurred, and the 12-year-old child was killed, while he was seriously injured.

What bomb remnant would look like a water regulator with a light bulb?

When an explosion happens inside a house or inside the rubble of a house, chances are very good that it came from Hamas, which proudly hid booby-traps in walls and closets. It even took videos of hiding these bombs.

Most of the examples in the article appear to have been inside houses. While it could be that some are from Israel, these are areas that were booby-trapped.

The article says that Rafah and northern Gaza are the most dangerous places - and the IDF mentioned months ago that practically every building in the north of Gaza was booby-trapped, while the New York Times reported last June that there were hundreds in Rafah as well.

I predicted a month ago that Hamas and Hamas-tilted media will blame Israel for these deaths. I'm not wrong.
