Report: Misfired Hamas test rocket hits Palestininan fishing boat, killing three
I’m not sure this qualifies as a “work accident” since the terrorists handing and firing the rocket were not the ones killed, but it does illustrate the phenomenon of Hamas mishandling its own explosive devices.
AP via ABC News reports:
Three Palestinian fishermen were killed Sunday after a blast ripped through their boat off the Gaza shore, officials said, in what appeared to be an explosion caused by a misfired rocket launched by the ruling Hamas militant group.
Nezar Ayyash, a spokesman for the local fisherman’s association, said the men — two brothers and a cousin — were working off the coast of the southern town of Khan Younis when the explosion happened.
The cause of the blast wasn’t immediately clear, but there were growing indications that it was the result of a misfired rocket. Hamas, which has fought three wars with Israel, is believed to possess thousands of rockets.
Minutes before the explosion, local media reported that Hamas was test-firing rockets toward the sea.

DEVELOPING: Dam on the Hawaiian island of Maui in imminent danger of failure, evacuations ordered
Hawaii Emergency Management issued an evacuation order Monday night for the area downstream of the Kaupakalua Dam in Haiku on the Hawaiian island of Maui.
Hawaii Emergency Management issued an evacuation order Monday night for the area downstream of the Kaupakalua Dam in Haiku on the Hawaiian island of Maui. The dam is in imminent danger of failure according to the agency and the evacuation also coincides with a flash-flood warning.
The National Weather Service reported 13.2 inches (33.5 centimeters) of rain fell in the Haiku area between 7 am and 3 pm and the heavy rains have led to the dam cresting and the breach. According to the National Weather Service in Honolulu, "Failure of the dam will produce life-threatening flooding as well as significant property damage in areas downstream from the dam."
