Several missiles were also fired at an area west of Gaza City, eyewitnesses reported.
Israeli artillery shells targeted an electricity generator in the northern part of the Gaza Strip Thursday evening, causing a complete blackout in the area.
In a separate attack, two Palestinian security men were injured Thursday evening after the army shelled a Palestinian security post in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.
The Israeli army has fired more than 400 artillery shells at areas in the northern and southern parts of the Gaza Strip.
