IDF stresses Rafah strike did not target humanitarian zone, launches probe into civilian deaths

The attack targeted two senior members of the Hamas terrorist group; dozens of Palestinians were reportedly killed in the strike.

The Israeli army released a statement on Monday regarding the deadly attack on Rafah a day earlier, reiterating that it had taken steps to mitigate harm to civilians ahead of the airstrike.

The attack, which will be investigated by the IDF’s General Staff’s fact-finding and assessment mechanism, did not target zones where the military told the civilian population to flee.
