The Hamas-run health ministry in the Gaza Strip says one person has been killed and another four were wounded in the Israeli airstrike on a building in the southern Gaza town of Bani Suheila, near Khan Younis.

Palestinian media reports identify the slain man as Ahmad Abu Deka, a senior member of the Palestinian Islamic Jihad, said to be the deputy head of the terror group’s rocket array.

The Israel Defense Forces said earlier it was carrying out strikes against Islamic Jihad targets across the Strip.
