The Israel Defense Forces said on Tuesday that a rocket launched by Hamas a day earlier failed to cross into Israeli territory, instead hitting a school in the Nuseirat neighborhood of the Gaza Strip.
"The Hamas terrorist organization's rocket fire continues to endanger both Israeli and Gazan civilians alike," the IDF said in a statement.

Meanwhile in Khan Yunis, Israeli forces continue to push into Khan Yunis after relaunching operations against terrorists in the southern Gaza city on Monday.
Israeli aircraft have struck more than 50 terrorist sites, including "weapons storage facilities, observation posts, and structures used by Hamas terrorists, as well as underground tunnel routes in the area."
In Rafah, the southernmost city in the Palestinian enclave, soldiers are conducting surgical raids in the area. IDF troops eliminated dozens of terrorists, the statement said, both in airstrikes and close-quarters combat.
