Israeli authorities have not issued any comments on the strike.
The last attack occurs in renewed hostilities in the region, after the resumption of the Israeli army of strikes in Gaza on Tuesday. The measure ended a high fire agreement that had been in force since January 19, bringing almost two months of relative calm.
Israel has blamed Hamas for climbing, while Hamas has denied accusations and, on the other hand, accused Israel of raping the truce negotiated by Qatar, Egypt and the United States.
An official of the Ministry of Health led by Hamas declared that 32 Palestinians had been killed in several places through the Gaza Strip in the last 24 hours. The Israeli army offensive follows the deadly cross -border assault carried out by Hamas on October 7, 2023, in which approximately 1,200 people were killed and 251 requitable.
Since then, more than 49,500 Palestinians have been killed in Gaza, according to figures from the Ministry of Health led by Hamas, with a generalized devastation reported in houses and infrastructure in the territory.
