The raid was part of a series of airstrikes and shelling carried out by the Israeli occupation across central, north, and south Gaza on Thursday night through early Friday. Other targets included a Palestinian home in the al-Shati refugee camp, refugee tents in western Rafah, and the al-Awda roundabout in central Rafah.
