An explosion in the Gaza Strip killed a member of the Hamas Islamist group on Thursday, hospital staff and witnesses said.
Palestinian sources reported that Muhammad al-Arir was killed from IDF fire near the Sajiya neighborhood east of Gaza City.
According to the sources, al-Arir was killed from an Israeli tank shelling and was transferred to Shifa Hospital.
An Israeli army spokesman said Israel was not involved in the blast and had not carried out any attacks in the area.
Israeli sources believe al-Arir was killed in an internal incident.
On Saturday Palestinians reported a gunman was killed in an IDF aerial attack in Beit Hanoun in the northern Gaza Strip, and another gunman was critically wounded.
The IDF Spokesperson's Office said the army did not attack, and officials believe the explosion was another Hamas 'work accident'.
