Israeli planes on Sunday sprayed toxic pesticides on Palestinian farmlands along Gaza’s eastern border.
Israel regularly sprays Palestinian citizens’ agricultural lands located near the border with dangerous pesticides which destroy the crops.
Farmers and eyewitnesses told the PIC reporter that Israeli planes started in the early morning hours to spray farmlands east of Gaza city with poisonous chemical substances affirming that these pesticides have a negative effect on the crops and cause farmers to suffer huge losses.
Farmer Abu al-Said explained that the effects of Israeli pesticides appear two or three days after they are sprayed.
Israel claims that it only sprays weed killers near the border fence but it usually sprays hundreds of dunums of land around the targeted areas killing and damaging Palestinian crops.
