This isnt the first time an Israeli missile has hit a UN shelter. The New York Times reports that, though Israeli military leaders have declared definitively that no United Nations facility was targeted, Rafah was the sixth shelter struck during the operation.

A subsequent strike there killed more than 15 people.
