The Israeli Occupation Authorities (IOA) released overnight five Palestinian fishermen who were detained earlier on Tuesday.
Local sources affirmed that four fishermen were released all together via Erez crossing late yesterday while the fifth was later released in very critical condition as he was suffering from gunshot injuries in his back.
Earlier Tuesday Israeli Naval Forces arrested five Palestinian fishermen off Gaza shores.
Israeli forces regularly open fire on Palestinian fishermen and farmers along the border areas despite a ceasefire agreement that ended Israel’s 2014 aggression.
