Rockets are launched from the Gaza Strip towards Israel, as seen from near Israel's border with Gaza in southern Israel, October 12, 2023.
Military experts said this week that photos from the conflict showed Hamas militants may be using North Korean weapons, including possible F-7 rocket-propelled grenades.
The North's official KCNA news agency called the claims of its weapons being used in the attacks "a groundless and false rumour".
U.S. National Security Council spokesman John Kirby on Thursday said he could not confirm the reports about the source of the rockets being used by Hamas.
North Korea's state media earlier this week blamed Israel for causing bloodshed in Gaza.
