The Gaza Government Media Office has provided updates on the situation, highlighting the urgent need for assistance and medical care for the injured. The strike was reportedly targeting a 'senior terrorist' who was allegedly responsible for leading attacks against Israeli civilians and troops, according to the Israeli military.

This tragic incident serves as a stark reminder of the ongoing conflict in the region and the toll it takes on innocent civilians caught in the crossfire. The international community has been called upon to intervene and help de-escalate the situation to prevent further loss of life.
