Gaza: 'Islamic State in Gaza' claims it had nothing to do with Gaza explosion

According to Haaretz, only a few hours after a flyer was distributed by a group called 'Islamic State in Gaza' claiming responsibility for an explosion at a French culture centre last night, the same group have seemingly issued another statement denying responsibility for the attack.

The second statement, released at various media offices in Gaza, claims the group's mission is "to implement Sharia law in Islamic lands and murder the children of Zion."
