The Israeli military said it conducted a strike on a weapons storage site in northern Gaza on Wednesday, which the Hamas-run territory's civil defense agency said killed one person.
The strike came hours after Israel announced it was renewing its enforcement of the US-brokered ceasefire following a wave of overnight bombing.
"A short while ago, the Israeli military conducted a precise strike in the area of Beit Lahia in the northern Gaza Strip targeting a terrorist infrastructure site where weapons and aerial means were stored, intended to be used for the execution of an imminent terror attack against soldiers and the State of Israel," a military statement said.
Mahmud Bassal, the spokesman for Gaza's civil defense agency, told AFP that one person "was killed in an Israeli air strike on the Atatra area in Beit Lahia, northern Gaza Strip, and was transferred to Al-Shifa Hospital."
The civil defense agency operates as a rescue force under Hamas authority.
The Israeli military launched a wave of bombing on Tuesday after one of its soldiers was killed in Gaza on the same day, but by mid-morning on Wednesday it said it had begun "renewed enforcement of the ceasefire" -- while reserving the right to defend its troops.
Gaza's civil defense agency said more than 100 people were killed, including many children, but both US President Donald Trump and regional mediator Qatar said they expected the US-brokered ceasefire to hold.
