GAZA, September 17 (RIA Novosti) - More than 40 Palestinians from the Jabaliyah refugee camp in northern Gaza were injured on Thursday in a gas explosion, a Palestinian health ministry spokesman said.
"At least three people are critically wounded," the spokesman said. All of the injured were taken to a Gaza Strip hospital.
According to witnesses, a series of blasts occurred in a restaurant. Apparently, the explosions were triggered by a leak in one of the gas cylinders.
