Israel said the building was not targeted, but may have sustained collateral damaged.

TEL AVIV - Israel's security cabinet, citing Palestinian rocket fire and a need to guarantee an end to arms smuggling into the Gaza Strip, decided to press on with military operations in the Hamas-ruled territory despite a U.N. Security Council resolution calling for an immediate ceasefire.

TEL AVIV - Israel's Foreign Minister Tzipi Livni said: "Israel has acted, is acting and will act only according to its considerations, the security needs of its citizens and its right to self defense." Her statement made no direct reference to how Israel would treat the call for a ceasefire.
