Original Note:
It’s not yet clear whether the rocket belonged to Israel. Israel is currently investigating it’s origin. A Channel 12 news reporter speculates that the blast was the result of a failed Hamas rocket launch, or that an ammunition store ignited. https://www.timesofisrael.com/liveblog-october-17-2023/ https://www.aljazeera.com/news/liveblog/2023/10/16/israel-hamas-war-live-iran-warns-resistance-front-may-attack https://apnews.com/article/israel-palestinians-gaza-hamas-war-biden-rafah-e062825a375d9eb62e95509cab95b80c
