Palestinian medical personnel reported that the strike in Gaza City’s southern area had damaged the tents used to house the displaced people. Heavy destruction may be seen in the scene’s footage.
Nonetheless, the Israeli military claimed to have killed two senior Hamas terrorists when it targeted a “Hamas compound” in Rafah. It declared that it was looking into claims that people had been hurt.
It claimed that the operation eliminated a senior Hamas leader responsible for killing Israelis as well as the organization’s chief of staff for the West Bank.
According to the health ministry in Gaza, which is governed by Hamas, women and children made up “most” of the dead.
