A Hamas rocket launcher positioned next to a United Nations building in Gaza City’s Shati camp was struck by Israeli fighter jets a short while ago, the IDF says.

The military says the strike was carried out after calling on civilians in the area to evacuate.

Footage released by the IDF shows a rocket flying out of the site following the strike.
