5 children killed in Israeli airstrike on house and tent sheltering displaced people

Gaza's civil defense agency reported that an Israeli airstrike on Sunday hit a house and a tent sheltering displaced people, killing at least eight, including five children, as Palestinians marked the first day of Eid Al-Fitr. The strike took place as both Hamas and Israel confirmed receiving a new truce proposal from mediators aimed at halting hostilities in Gaza during the holiday.

is there any source confirming this?

(the video in the cited source is not loading, so I have no idea what the UN spokesperson has to say about it.)

I think it could be read both ways. The first time, I read it as a dig against supporters of Israel, and I think that might[e/u] be the case. Since I'm not 100% sure, I'm going to let it stand for now.
