A large explosion rocked a Palestinian camp in the southern Lebanese port city of Tyre on Friday night, injuring about a dozen people, according to rescue workers on scene and a Palestinian source inside the camp.<\/span><\/p>\n

The state-run National News Agency (NNA) reported an unspecified number of deaths, but local media and civil defense workers on scene said there had been no fatalities. A security source also said fatalities had not been recorded.<\/span><\/p>\n

The NNA reported that the blast emanated from a Hamas weapons depot in the Burj al-Shemali camp and a judge had ordered security forces to launch an investigation.<\/span><\/p>\n

A report from Al Arabiya quoted a Hamas source who claimed that “A fire broke out in a mosque in the camp and spread to the area where ammunition was kept.” The explosion was apparently caused by the ignition of oxygen tanks stored at the site.<\/span><\/p>\n

A number of armed Palestinian factions, including Hamas and the Fatah Movement, hold effective control over roughly a dozen Palestinian camps in the country, which Lebanese authorities by custom do not enter.<\/span><\/p>\n

Shehab News Agency, seen as close to Hamas, quoted a Palestinian source as saying the explosion was caused by the ignition of oxygen canisters stored for use in fighting the COVID-19 pandemic.<\/span><\/p>\n

The security source said the fire had since been brought under control.<\/span>
\nHamas has not officially commented.<\/span><\/p>\n

The area surrounding the blast had been evacuated and rescue crews had deployed, the Palestinian source said.<\/span>
\nVideos from the scene shared by local media show a number of small bright red flashes above the southern city, followed by a large explosion and the sound of glass breaking.<\/span><\/p>\n
