The Israeli occupation forces arrested on Tuesday six fishermen off the coast of Deir al-Balah in Central Gaza, after Israeli naval boats encircled the fishermen’s boats, in the second arrest operation against Gaza fishermen since the start of the genocidal war in Gaza on October 7, 2023.
Local sources said that Israeli naval boats opened fire on the fishermen’s fishing nets, surrounded them, forced them to leave their nets, before detaining them on board the Israeli naval boat.
At least 30 fishermen from the Gaza Strip were killed, and a number of others were injured, including a fisherman from the al-Najjar family, whose hand was amputated as a result of the injury, according to the head of the fishermen’s committees in the Gaza Strip, Zakaria Bakr.
