Zionist occupation forces open fire at farmers in Gaza Strip

GAZA, Aug. 02 (YPA) – Israeli occupation forces on Monday morning opened fire at Palestinian herders to the south-east of Gaza City, Palestinian media reporting, citing local sources.

According to the local sources , Israeli occupation forces opened random fire toward Palestinian farmers as they were working in farmlands near to the Gaza perimeter fence to the south-east of Gaza City, in al-Zaytoun neighborhood, forcing them to leave.

Moreover, the occupation forces deliberately target farmers on border areas to the north and east of the besieged Gaza Strip and prevent them from accessing their lands.

Meanwhile, the Israeli naval forces also opened fire and water cannons on fishermen while sailing at about three nautical miles from the shore of Al-Sudaniya area in Gaza City, causing partial damage to at least one boat and forcing fishermen to return to the shore.
