Israeli army carries out limited incursion into southeast of Gaza

Monday 21-June-2021

Israeli military bulldozers on Monday morning infiltrated limitedly into a southeastern border area in the besieged Gaza Strip.

According to local sources six armored bulldozers escorted by two Merkava tanks infiltrated into a border area in the east of al-Fakhari area southeast of Khan Yunis and embarked on bulldozing swaths of land.

Some artillery units behind the security fence reportedly opened machinegun fire sporadically towards cultivated tracts of land in the area during the incursion.

The Israeli army has violated Egyptian-brokered ceasefire agreements in Gaza several times before through attacking Palestinian civilians in Gaza waters and border areas and conducting limited incursions.

Gazan farmers always incur heavy losses as a result of such repeated military incursions into their agricultural lands which are located along the coastal enclave’s borderline with the 1948 occupied territories.
