LGF points me to another small 'oops' in Gaza:
A Palestinian teenager was killed in an explosion inside a Gaza City apartment Monday, witnesses and hospital officials said.Vegas odds on 'cooking gas cylinder:' 1,000:1. Later reports, though, make it hard for me to decide whether whether to file this under 'Splodeydope Watch' or 'Dangerous Stupidity:'
The blast in the 12-story building was apparently caused by either the premature detonation of a bomb or the accidental explosion of a cooking gas cylinder, residents and security officials said.
A 17-year-old Palestinian was killed Monday evening at the Shata refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, apparently after handling a hand grenade or an explosive charge. The boy's mother and brother were injured in the blast.The Palestinians, of course, are putting their money on the IDF:

The identity of the target was not immediately known. The Israeli army, which has killed wanted militants in air strikes since the start of a Palestinian uprising more than three years ago, had no immediate comment.
Palestinian witnesses said an Israeli helicopter fired a missile in the attack on Monday.
