Thursday 19-December-2019

The Israeli occupation army on Thursday morning announced the reduction of the fishing area off the coast of the besieged Gaza Strip.

According to the fishermen’s union the Israeli army told the Palestinian liaison office that the fishing zone from the north to Gaza port would be up to six nautical miles and from Gaza port to the southern border in Rafah would be up to 10 nautical miles.

The Israeli army had recently expanded anew the fishing zone in Gaza waters to 10 nautical miles as part of mediated understandings over Gaza between the Palestinian resistance and the Israeli government.
