GAZA, June 18, 2017 (WAFA) – Israeli navy Sunday opened fire towards Palestinian fishermen and their fishing boats while sailing off al-Sudaniya area, north of the Gaza Strip, local source said.
The fishermen were forced to leave the area for fear of getting shot. No injuries were reported.
Despite the signed agreements between the Palestinians and Israel which allow fishermen to go 12 nautical miles inside the for the shore, Israeli navy targets Gaza fishermen almost daily, and doesn’t allow them to go further than three nautical miles, which the fishermen say is not enough to catch fish.
