Warplanes also fired two missiles at a location west of the Nusseirat refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip also causing serious damage to the site and nearby homes.
The Israeli army also opened artillery fire at lands east of Khan Yunis in the south of the Gaza Strip and at areas east of the Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip without causing any bodily harm.
Israel claims the attacks came in response to the firing of a rocket from Gaza that fell in southern Israel on Wednesday night.
