A massive explosion rocked a training camp belonging to Hamas in southern Gaza late Tuesday night. Medical officials and witnesses reported at least six operatives belonging to the Islamist group were wounded in the incident.

Fearing there may be others still trapped under heavy debris, Hamas' military wing said it dispatched earthmovers to the site, which was built on the ruins of an Israeli settlement near the town of Khan Younis.

Emergency response teams swarmed the scene of the disaster, the explosion having echoed loudly throughout the neighboring town. The origin of the explosion remains unclear at present time.

Dr. Moaiya Hassanain from the Palestinian Health Ministry said two of those wounded were in critical condition, and that all the men were Hamas operatives.
