Israeli war boats target Palestinian fishermen

Saturday 9-June-2018

Israeli Navy Forces opened their machinegun fire Saturday morning towards Palestinian fishing boats off Sudaniya shore to the west of Gaza city.

Eyewitnesses said that Israeli war boats have fired at Palestinian fishing boats while sailing within the six-nautical-mile allowed zone for fishing.

Only material damage was cause after Palestinian fishermen were forced to leave their boats for fear of a new attack.

Israeli Naval forces continued to carry out attacks on Palestinian fishermen in the Gaza Strip in flagrant violation to the ceasefire agreement concluded between Israel and Palestinian resistance under Egyptian auspices on 26 August 2014.

This agreement includes allowing Palestinian fishermen to sail within 6 nautical miles in the Gaza Sea.

Israeli war boats target Palestinian fishermen

Friday 22-May-2015

GAZA (PIC)– Israeli Navy Forces opened their machinegun fire Friday morning towards Palestinian fishing boats off Sudaniya shore to the north of Gaza city.

Local sources said that Israeli war boats have heavily fired at Palestinian fishing boats while sailing within the six-nautical-mile allowed zone for fishing.

Only material damage was cause after Palestinian fishermen were forced to leave their boats for fear of a new attack.

Israeli Naval forces continued to carry out attacks on Palestinian fishermen in the Gaza Strip in flagrant violation to the ceasefire agreement concluded between Israel and Palestinian resistance under Egyptian auspices on 26 August 2014.

This agreement includes allowing Palestinian fishermen to sail within 6 nautical miles in the Gaza Sea. According to PCHR’s investigations all attacks took place within the distance of 6 nautical miles which proves that Israeli forces’ policies aim to tighten restrictions on the Gaza Strip’s fishermen and their livelihoods.
