Following an IDF evacuation warning, Palestinian media reports that an Israeli airstrike targeted a three-story residential building in Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood.

The military, an hour ago, warned that it would strike “Hamas terror infrastructure” at the building.

It marks the first Israeli strike in the Gaza Strip with an official prior evacuation warning issued by the military since September 2025, before the ongoing ceasefire.

The military has not yet provided further details on the strike.
