Hamas has claimed responsibility for a deadly booby-trap attack in southern Gaza that killed four Israeli soldiers and injured five more, including one critically. The blast occurred on June 6 in Khan Younis after Israeli troops from the elite Yahalom engineering unit entered a building suspected of concealing tunnels and terror infrastructure. Unbeknownst to the troops, the building had been rigged with explosives. The resulting blast caused a structural collapse, killing four soldiers.
