Israeli navy attacks Gaza fishermen off Beit Lahiya shore

Tuesday 15-November-2016

The Israeli occupation gunboats on Tuesday morning attacked Palestinian fishermen sailing off al-Sudaniya shore in northern Gaza Strip with heavy machinegun fire.

A PIC news correspondent said the Israeli occupation navy attacked Palestinian fishing vessels setting sail off al-Sudaniya shore to the west of Beit Lahiya town with randomly-shot spates of machinegun fire.

The fishermen were reportedly sailing within the six-nautical-mile zone authorized by the Israeli occupation navy.

The fishermen went ashore right away for fear of being killed or kidnapped in the assault.

Palestinian fishermen in the blockaded Gaza Strip have been the permanent targets of attacks and arbitrary abductions by the Israeli occupation navy while on their way to fetch a livelihood for their children and wives in the beleaguered coastal enclave.
