Hamas terrorists blow themselves up attempting to disarm unexploded Israeli ordinance

Palestinian media: “The Brigades mourned its fighters, Ahmed Abu Hasira and Osamah Janina, and said they died after a blessed life full of struggle and sacrifices, asking Allah Almighty to accept them as martyrs, bestow His mercy upon them and make His Paradise their eternal dwelling.”

Two people were killed after trying to defuse an unexploded IDF ordnance at a military base in Gaza, Israeli media reported.

Ynet reports that the two killed were engineering members of Hamas’ military wing, who attempted to defuse the armament within the confines of the Hamas base.

They almost certainly were trying to salvage the explosive for future use, as common Hamas practice as the L.A. Times reported recently:

In a September documentary aired by the satellite news network Al Jazeera, rare footage showed Hamas militants reassembling Iranian rockets with ranges of up to 50 miles and warheads packed with 385 pounds of explosives. Hamas militants opened unexploded Israeli missiles from previous strikes to extract explosive materials. They even salvaged old water pipes to repurpose as missile bodies.
