UN Gaza Situation Report No. 58 — 3 January 2026
Israeli airstrikes, shelling and gunfire continued to be reported across several areas of the Gaza Strip between 30 December and 2 January, with several casualties reported. Strikes reportedly struck several locations in North Gaza, Gaza City, Deir al Balah, Khan Yunis and Rafah, involving multiple airstrikes and ground fire. Partners working in water, sanitation and hygiene say that heavy rains have affected damaged and unmaintained water-related infrastructure. For example, recent rains raised water levels in Wadi Gaza in Deir al Balah and Sheikh Radwan lagoon in Jabalya. In order to ensure the operation of de-watering pumps, the humanitarian community is engaging with the Israeli authorities to allow the entry of specialised equipment.
According to the Gaza Ministry of Health, as of 13:00 on 1 January, five Palestinians were reported killed and eleven others injured across the Gaza Strip over the previous 48 hours.
