Local officials and family members said an Israeli airstrike Tuesday in northern Gaza killed 10 members of Qatar-based Hamas political chief Ismail Haniyeh’s family.
The strike hit a house in the Shati refugee camp west of Gaza City.
Israeli strikes earlier in the war killed three of Haniyeh’s sons.
Israel’s military said its forces carried out airstrikes targeting buildings in Shati and another area in northern Gaza that it said were being used by Hamas militants who were involved in the Oct. 7 attack on Israel.
The latest fighting came as Israel’s Supreme Court ruled that the military must draft ultra-Orthodox Jewish seminary students for military service.
The unanimous decision Tuesday could put additional pressure on Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu’s government, which relies on two ultra-Orthodox parties in its coalition.
