(INN) An Israeli airstrike on Tuesday night targeted the home of senior Hamas leader Mahmoud al-Zahar, security officials told the AFP news agency.
There was no one in the house, in western Gaza City, at the time the airstrike hit, the security sources and witnesses said.
Witnesses said at least two missiles hit Zahar's home, flattening the four-storey building and causing damage to the adjacent mosque and several neighboring houses.
Israeli strikes also hit the home in western Gaza City of Bassem Naim, a senior Hamas official, and those of former health minister Fathi Hammad and Hamas MP Ismail al-Ashqar, both in Jabalia in the north.
The airstrikes came hours after the IDF advised residents of several neighborhoods in northern Gaza to leave their homes ahead of an impending airstrike.
