BBC reporter from Gaza, live now:
“The [IDF] has been contacted for comment and they are investigating, but it’s hard to see what else this could be really given the size of the explosion other than an Israeli airstrike or several airstrikes, because when we’ve seen rockets being fired out of Gaza we never see explosions of that scale. We might see half a dozen, maybe a few more people being killed in such rocket attacks but we’ve never seen one on the scale of this sort of explosion on the video I was watching earlier, which as you say is still to be verified.”
