Local command post? Home of local Hamas/PIJ military leadership? Weapons depot? So many possibilities…
Update from the Times of Israel — more adventures yesterday in Gaza:
As ceasefire talks continued in Cairo and the world’s attention was focused on the escalation in violence along Israel’s northern border, IDF troops continued to battle Hamas
..the well-beloved offspring of the Moslem Brotherhood,...
throughout Gazoo
...Hellhole adjunct to Israel and Egypt's Sinai Peninsula, inhabited by Gazooks. The place was acquired in the wake of the 1967 War and then presented to Paleostinian control in 2006 by Ariel Sharon, who had entered his dotage. It is currently ruled with an iron fist by Hamas with about the living conditions you'd expect. It periodically attacks the Hated Zionist Entity whenever Iran needs a ruckus created or the hard boyz get bored, getting thumped by the IDF in return. The ruling turbans then wave the bloody shirt and holler loudly about oppression and disproportionate response...
on Sunday.

The Israel Defense Forces also issued new evacuation orders for a portion of the designated humanitarian zone, while reports in Gaza said a number of Paleostinians were killed in Israeli Arclight airstrike
...KABOOM!...

The military announced on Sunday the deaths of two IDF soldiers — Staff Sgt. Amit Tsadikov, 20, who was killed fighting in southern Gaza’s Khan Younis a day earlier, and Master Sgt. (res.) Shlomo Yehonatan Hazut, 36, who was killed earlier in the day in Gaza City.

Their deaths bring Israel’s toll in the offensive against Hamas to 340, while Tsadikov was the 700th fallen soldier recognized by the IDF since the start of the terror group’s October 7 onslaught on southern Israel. By Sunday evening, that figure had already risen to 702, after a sailor was also killed amid the Hezbollah attack in the north.

According to an initial IDF probe, an bomb killed Tsadikov, a Beit Dagan resident who served in the Paratroopers Brigade’s 202nd Battalion.

Hazut, of the Jerusalem Brigade’s 9207th Battalion, from Ashdod, was hit by an bomb planted on a road in Gaza City’s Zeitoun neighborhood, the IDF said. Another soldier was seriously maimed in the incident.

Separately, a soldier in the Combat Engineering Corps’ 601st Battalion was seriously maimed fighting in southern Gaza and brought to a hospital for treatment, the IDF said.

Also Sunday, the IDF issued a call for Paleostinians in a small section of the Israeli-designated humanitarian zone in central Gaza’s Deir al-Balah to evacuate.

Meanwhile,
...back at the wreckage, Captain Poindexter wished he had thought to pack sun block...
an AFP correspondent reported strikes and shelling in Gaza City, in the Strip’s north. Rescuers said at least three people were killed. Witnesses told AFP that battles also raged in the area of Deir al-Balah, farther south.

Wafa, the Paleostinian Authority’s official news agency, said three more people were killed and dozens injured in a dronezap near Deir al-Balah’s al-Anan Stadium. The agency reported artillery fire and dronezaps on the nearby Bureij refugee camp as well.

According to Wafa, Israel also fired artillery on Gaza City’s southeastern Zeitoun neighborhood and launched airstrikes on the al-Oyoun junction, west of the city.
