Israeli airstrikes killed at least 54 Palestinians across Gaza on January 2, 2025, including 11 in a tent encampment in the Al-Mawasi district. Among the dead were Gaza's police chief Mahmoud Salah and his aide, Hussam Shahwan. The attacks also targeted areas like Khan Younis, Jabalia, and the Maghazi camp, where Hamas militants were allegedly operating. The Israeli military confirmed intelligence-based strikes, claiming they followed international law. Gaza's health ministry reports over 45,500 deaths since the war began, as much of Gaza remains devastated, with many displaced residents.
