The Israeli military struck a Hamas command and control centre located in a UN complex in central Gaza on Sunday night which served as a staging ground for
multiple attacks against ground forces and humanitarian efforts, the Israel Defence Forces said.

Meanwhile, the army said three soldiers were killed and 11 injured in a rocket attack on the Kerem Shalom crossing earlier in the day.

The command and control facility was used as a staging ground for multiple attacks on Israeli troops in Gaza's central corridor in recent weeks.

Furthermore, the forward operations base was used to carry out attacks on humanitarian efforts trying to increase the distribution of aid to the Strip's civilians.
