Rafah , ALRAY-Israeli Military gunboats Tuesday opened fire at Palestinian fishermen off Khan Younis and Rafah shores in the southern Gaza Strip, no injuries reported.

Israeli gunboats fired intensively on the boats  in a distance of less than three miles forcing them to fish close to the shore, Safa Agency reported.

Gaza shores witness these days unusual  activity for the Israeli warships, especially in areas close to fishermen.

The Israeli occupation forces routinely attack Gazan fishermen and their fishing boats which coincided with the  Israel’s closure of the Gaza Strip.    Israel imposes  wide  restrictions on the Gaza fishing zone ,  deprives  Palestinian fishers   from  the right of access to the  fishery resources , putting  their life at risk.
