According to the Israeli army, two buildings were targeted, where terrorists are said to have been located.

In April, three of his sons and four grandchildren were killed in an Israeli attack in the center of the Gaza Strip. The Israeli army accused them of "terrorist activities". Haniyeh explained at the time that around 60 members of his family had already been killed since the start of the Gaza war on October 7.

Among them were terrorists who had been involved in the massacre on October 7 and had been holding hostages. The buildings were located in the Al-Shati refugee district and in Daraj Tuffah.

According to the army statement, terrorists had sought refuge in school buildings. They had been involved in the planning and execution of attacks on Israel. Air surveillance measures, precise ammunition and intelligence resources had been used to minimize the danger to civilians.

Israel's actions against Hamas in the Gaza Strip are criticized above all for the high number of civilian casualties.
