Timeline of the Israeli–Palestinian conflict:

2 January

An airstrike in the Dahieh neighborhood of Beirut, Lebanon, resulted in the assassination of Saleh al-Arouri, deputy leader of Hamas' political bureau and one of the architects of a Hamas attack on Israel. Along with al-Arouri, six other individuals including high-ranking Hamas militants were killed. This event occurred a day before Hezbollah's commemoration of the 4th anniversary of Qassem Soleimani's assassination and followed the killing of another QF General, Sayyed Razi Mousavi, in Syria seven days earlier.

Israeli military raids in the West Bank resulted in the deaths of five Palestinians. Four were killed in Azzun, and the fifth was shot in Qalqilya during a raid, allegedly after opening fire. An IDF soldier was moderately injured. The IDF claimed the four men in Azzun had barricaded themselves in a house and opened fire. The Palestine Ministry of Health confirmed the deaths, stating that Israeli forces took away the bodies.[1][2] Operations in the West Bank intensified after the Hamas-led attack on Israel on 7 October 2023. According to the IDF, as of 2 January, more than 2,550 wanted persons had been arrested in the West Bank, including approximately 1,300 associated with Hamas.[1] 321 Palestinians had been killed in the West Bank by Israeli troops or settlers since October 7, according to the Palestinian health ministry.[3][4]
