"According to the laws of armed conflict, it is permissible to direct attacks against military targets...
...'military targets' includes civilian objects that by their nature, purpose, location, or use make an effective contribution to military action and whose destruction offers a definite military advantage." (Art. 52(2) of Additional Protocol I of 1977, Geneva Convention)
Hamas has made Gaza a military target. Israel is not in contravention of the laws of war in attacking it.
