Pretty interesting that this is buried several paragraphs into the article:

The organization wouldn't say outright if it believes the Israeli military was responsible and is calling on the Canadian government to investigate.

So the organization isn't even claiming that it was bombed by Israel, but it's hard to imagine anyone reading the headline would think anything else...

The headline said exactly what happened. The aid group stated that they believed that their truck was bombed in a targeted attack. They didn't say who they thought made the attack but requested that the Canadian government reach out to Israel to request an answer. They also requested an investigation by Canadian authorities.

It is fairly clear that the aid organization thinks Israel committed the bombing but they are allowing the Canadian government the latitude to be delicate with the situation.

The list of groups potentially bombing things in northern Gaza is pretty limited:

  1. Izz ad-Din al-Qassam Brigades
  2. Israeli Defense Forces

And the IDF says that it has eliminated Hamas in that area...
