The Israeli military is investigating the aftermath of a strike on Rafah that may have unintentionally triggered stored weapons in a nearby compound, leading to a large fire that devastated part of a camp housing displaced Palestinians. According to spokesperson Rear Admiral Daniel Hagari, this is one of several possibilities being considered, although no verifiable evidence has been provided to support the claim.
Hagari stated during a press conference that the investigation aims to determine the cause of the significant fire. The Israeli military is exploring all potential scenarios, including the theory that weapons stored in a neighboring compound, unbeknownst to them, could have ignited due to the strike.
