Israeli navy targets Palestinian fishing boats in Gaza sea
Gaza Strip (QNN)- The Israeli navy on Wednesday morning opend fire at Palestinian fishing boats sailing offshore Gaza city.
Local sources said that the navy opened gunfire and water hoses at Palestinian fishing boats sailing within six nautical miles offshore the city, causing damage to at least one boat.
The Israeli navy deliberately targets fishing boats on a daily basis, preventing nearly 3600 fishermen from earning living. The Israelis open fire, use water cannons, and damage fishing nets and boats’ engines in their efforts to terrorize fishermen.
Israel is “systematically and deliberately weaponizing starvation” against Palestinians in the Gaza Strip by restricting and controlling the entry of goods, exacerbating the suffering of over two million Palestinians after two years of genocide.
Itamar Ben-Gvir, Israel’s far-right National Security Minister, stormed the Al-Aqsa Mosque in occupied Jerusalem on Sunday for the second time in a week, in a provocative move following Israel’s 40-day closure of the holy site to Palestinians.
Over 500 people were arrested in central London on Saturday at a mass protest opposing the UK government’s ban on the direct action group Palestine Action.
