Israeli Airstrikes Kill Two Palestinians in Gaza, Including Senior Police Official

Israeli airstrikes in the Gaza Strip on Thursday resulted in the deaths of two Palestinians, including a senior police official. One strike in Khan Younis targeted a Hamas commander allegedly planning attacks, while a later drone strike in western Gaza City killed the head of the Gaza City police force. These incidents mark the first reported fatalities in over a week, as Israel had scaled back targeted attacks under U.S. pressure.
