Fire-fighters battled to put out the raging fire inside the house.
Ashraf Badwan, who lives next door to the house that was targeted, rushed his daughter Sondos to a local hospital.
The Israeli military said that overnight an IAF aircraft targeted a weapon manufacturing site in the northern Gaza Strip. Direct hits were confirmed and secondary explosions were identified.
The site was targeted in response to the ongoing rocket fire from the Gaza Strip.
