The Israeli military said it bombed the home of Ismail Haniyeh, the political leader of Hamas.
"The 215th fire brigade in the 162nd division attacked tonight with fighter jets the house of Ismail Haniyeh, the head of the political bureau of the terrorist organisation Hamas," the Israeli military said on social media platform X, saying the home was used for "terrorist infrastructure" and senior level Hamas meetings.
The military released video footage showing missiles being fired at what appeared to be a large residential home.
Haniyeh is based mainly Qatar along with other members of Hamas' political leadership. The strike comes as Israel and Hamas are negotiating a hostage deal brokered by Qatar.
