Dozens of Palestinians were wounded, and 15 others were missing after the strike in Rafah governorate.
Israeli warplanes have bombed a house belonging to the Shehadeh family in the Brazil neighbourhood in the Rafah governorate, south of the Gaza Strip.
Four people were killed in the attack on Thursday, and dozens of others wounded. At least 15 people remain missing under the rubble.
The wounded were transferred to the Abu Youssef Al Najjar Hospital and the Kuwaiti Specialty Hospital in Rafah.
The house, which belonged to Abdullah Shehadeh, a doctor, sheltered dozens of displaced people.
People in the neighbourhood, alongside the civil defence crews, dug through the wreckage with simple tools and their bare hands, in an attempt to retrieve the bodies of those killed that remained under the rubble.
