The Israel Defense Forces (IDF) have carried out more strikes against targets in Gaza on Monday, destroying at least two buildings, while Palestinian armed group Hamas fired almost 200 rockets into Israeli territory.<\/p>\n

At least two people were killed and 10 others wounded following an Israeli attack on a commercial building in Gaza, which hosted, among others, the offices of the Qatar Red Crescent Society (QRCS). The building was \u201cseverely damaged\u201d<\/em> by the strike, the group said, with the humanitarian office there being \u201cdestroyed.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

\u201cTargeting civilian objects is a blatant violation of the humanitarian law,\u201d<\/em> QRCS said in a statement<\/a>. Despite the incident, the QRCS added it will continue to \u201cprovide relief aid to the affected people in the Gaza Strip.\u201d<\/em><\/p>\n

Earlier, the IDF announced it had hit what it claimed were the headquarters of Hamas\u2019 Internal Security in northern Gaza, among other targets, and posted a video of a collapsing building on Twitter.<\/p>\n
