I soldier SISCHAit blows himself up and hurts some members of Hamas

A soldier tied to I SIS has blown itself up, causing several injuries from Hamas officials in Gaza.

The suicide bombing exploded when Hamas' militia officials stopped him for customs control to prevent his involvement in Egypt.

This explosion that occurred early Thursday morning also marks the first case when a Palestinian committed such a suicide act against Hamas' forces. Officials say he's an ISIS member.

Gaza's interior minister said the assailant has died, leaving some injured as well. One of the injured is reported to be in critical condition for life, reports Metro newspaper.

Palestinian media have identified the victim as Nadal Jaafari, a member of Hamas' military arm, as well as customs official.

His family has issued a public statement condemning his act, and comforting the affected.

They have also refused to accept condolences for him.

Hamas is now being accused by Egypt's neighbouring government of helping I SIS in northern Egypt.
