Bomb blasts rocked a cafe and a Hamas politician's house in the Gaza Strip on Friday, killing at least one Palestinian. According to Reuters, Hamas blamed unidentified "gunmen" for the bombings.

 

Hamas security sources said the first bomb exploded outside a popular cafe in the centre of Gaza City, killing a passer-by. A few minutes later, a second bomb went off outside the house of Hamas politician and leader Marwan Abu Rass. Nobody was hurt in that blast.
