The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) carried out on Tuesday morning a small-scale incursion into a border area in the southeast of the besieged Gaza Strip.
According to local sources six tanks advanced from a military post into an agricultural area in the east of Rafah in southern Gaza while firing machine guns and smoke grenades to cover their incursion.
No bulldozing activities have been reported in the area.
The border areas of Gaza are repeatedly exposed to Israeli military incursions and gunfire attacks.
Gaza farmers complain that the Israeli army’s repeated incursions and shooting attacks on the border always cause considerable damage to their crops and prevent them from working their lands.
