Wednesday 26-February-2020

Israeli occupation forces (IOF) escorted military bulldozers into the southern Gaza Strip governorate of Khan Younis on Wednesday morning.

Eyewitnesses said that four military bulldozers along with a tractor were seen advancing into eastern Abasan town in Khan Younis governorate carrying barbed wire.

IOF soldiers blew up an unknown object in the area they said noting that it was near the site where the soldiers had killed Mohammed Abu Naima a few days ago then dragged his body in a gruesome manner.

The IOF routinely invade Gazan border areas to level land and plant barbed wire to prevent Palestinian farmers from exploiting their land and to block advance of demonstrators to the security fence.
