source: Hamas causes buildings collapse - 21 IDF soldiers dead, several injured
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Hamas forces on Monday fired a rocket propelled grenade on multiple adjacent structures which, along with landmines which the IDF forces had collected and brought into the buildings, caused a total collapse, which in turn killed 21 soldiers and injured several others.
The incident occurred around 4:00 p.m. in al-Muasi in central Gaza.
In addition, a separate rocket propelled grenade was fired on an IDF tank which killed two IDF soldiers and injured two others.
It was unclear if the soldiers had violated procedures by bringing the landmines into the structures with them and also unclear how much the collapse of the building was caused by the RPG versus the secondary landmines explosions.
The IDF forces who were harmed were mostly reservists assigned to clear certain areas of dangerous items, such as mines.
Rescue activities went on for hours with the brigade commander having been on site from the start of the incident.
It was unclear what happened to the Hamas attackers.
The IDF released the names of 10 soldiers of the 21 that were killed.
Maj.-Gen. (res.) Matan Lazar, 32, from Haifa, a soldier from the IDF's 6261 Battalion, 261's Brigade.
Maj.-Gen. (res.) Hadar Kapeluk, 23, from Moshav Mevo Beitar, and was a Class Commander in the IDF's 8208 Battalion, 261st Brigade.
