Actually Israel is known to use a double tap bombing method that waits until reporters and aid shows up to the original site and then they strike it again to take out additional people to make it harder to respond to the next attack.
Also this was a cluster munition bomb ment to shoot shrapnel out, the goal is to just hit solid ground to make it explode sideways, they just happened to double tap exactly the same spot and there was a cavity under the road.
From the stills it looks like a standard mk82 with a guidance kit. It lacks the longetudenal slits that cluster munition bodies have. Also cluster munitions deploy their bomblets about 50-150m before they hit the ground, otherwise they don’t get distribution.
It looks more like they dropped a followup bomb on a bridge that was not destroyed by the first bomb. Its a common practice for low urgency targets.
Especially considering it hit the same crater. Those bombs are accurate to about 1m, so that is not unusualy to hit almost the same spot.
I still think they just did not care he was there. If they were targeting him, it would have hit him.
True I don’t think they were targeting him specifically but they were targeting the professions of who shows up after the first hit. They seemingly want a couple professions caught in the crossfire. And its ones that is a crime to target.
Also that is still incredibly lazy with expensive munitions to not calculate the strike to actually hit again a weak point but to just send it on the same trajectory and hope it blows up enough to get the job done.
