The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) attacked on Tuesday morning Palestinian shepherds and fishermen in the east and west of the besieged Gaza Strip.
According to local sources Israeli soldiers opened machinegun fire at a group of shepherds in the east of al-Bureij refugee camp in central Gaza and forced them to leave the grazing area.
In the west of Gaza Israeli gunboats opened machinegun fire at fishermen and their boats off the shore of Beit Lahia in northern Gaza.
No one was reportedly hurt in the attack which forced the fishing boats to return ashore.
Meanwhile the IOF carried out in the morning a limited incursion into a border area in the east of al-Bureij camp.
Eyewitnesses said that a number of armored bulldozers escorted by over 10 tanks advanced from a military post into an agricultural area while firing machine guns and smoke grenades to cover their incursion.
The bulldozers embarked on leveling and digging swaths of agricultural land which are located several meters away from the border fence the eyewitnesses added.
Under an inhumane siege the Israeli army keeps attacking — sometimes injuring or killing — farmers and fishermen almost on a daily basis with no regard for the ceasefire understandings over Gaza or even the international law.
