The top commander was killed with his family in the neighbourhood of Sheikh Radwan, a Hamas-aligned news agency said.
His death comes just days after another Hamas top commander was killed in an Israeli airstrike.
Ayman Nofal, who was in charge of the Central Gaza area in the armed wing Izz el-Deen Al-Qassam Brigades, is the most high-profile Hamas militant to be assassinated so far.
Nofal’s death came hours after the IDF confirmed it had killed senior Hamas official Dr Osama Mazini.

A clip shared on social media showed the bombing in the southern Gaza city of Khan Younis last night
Dr Mazini, who was understood to have been the Primary Hamas Negotiator for the 2011 prisoner swap, was taken out in the blast.
He handled the file of Gilad Shalit, an Israeli soldier held captive by Hamas in Gaza for five years.
Israel has been pounding neighbourhoods across Gaza including parts of the south that Israel had declared as “safe zones.”
