Israel carried out a series of air strikes throughout the Gaza Strip after nightfall. Hamas said one of its fighters was killed and four others were wounded. Medical officials said 10 civilians were also wounded in the strikes. An Israeli air strike in the city of Gaza damaged a building that housed production and transmission facilities for a number of television stations, most of them Arabic, journalists said. At least two people were wounded.
An Iranian state television station said two of its staff were wounded by the Israeli rocket strike on the building housing its office in Gaza.
"Israeli rocket strikes Gaza media building, wounding two," Press TV said in a breaking news headline, after initially reporting no casualties in the incident. "Israeli forces have targeted Press TV and al-Alam television stations in the Gaza Strip," the English-language satellite station said. Al-Alam is Iran's Arab-language television station.
An Israeli military spokesperson said the building had not been targeted, though it may have sustained "collateral damage".
