Israeli shelling of a house in the Sheikh Radwan neighborhood of Gaza City was also reported, injuring several people. Wafa also said seven people were killed in another Israeli airstrike on the town of Beit Lahiya on Monday.
A mosque in the northern Gaza Strip town of Jabalia was also hit by Israeli warplanes, destroying it completely. This brings to more than 31 the number of mosques bombed since the beginning of the escalation between Israel and Hamas.
The Israeli bombings were triggered by a large-scale attack by the Islamic Resistance Movement (Hamas) on Israeli military targets and towns on October 7, which has claimed the lives of 1,400 people in Israel to date.
