The Israeli military said a 21-year-old officer was killed during an operation in Khan Younis, southern Gaza, in which soldiers were rigging buildings with explosives in order to demolish them, Al Jazeera reports.
An explosion occurred approximately two hours after the buildings were rigged, resulting in the officer — a team commander in the Golani Brigade’s reconnaissance unit — being struck with shrapnel. He was declared dead shortly after.
