Occupation Army, Navy Attack Farmers, Fishermen in Gaza


(MENAFN- Qatar News Agency) Occupied Jerusalem, May 22 (QNA) - Israeli occupation soldiers opened fire early Monday at Palestinian farmers working on their lands and several fishing boats in different part of the besieged Gaza Strip.

Media sources in Gaza said the Israeli occupation soldiers stationed on military towers in Kissufim military base across the border fence, northeast of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip and fired many live rounds into agricultural lands forcing Palestinians out.

The lands are located close to the border fence in areas where such attacks are frequent an issue that prevents the locals from working on their lands and subject them to life-threatening violations, according to (IMEMC) News.

In addition, Israeli occupation navy ships fired many live rounds at Palestinian fishing boats in Gaza territorial waters in Rafah.The attack did not lead to casualties, but forced the fishermen back to the shore. (QNA)
