Fishing in Gaza continues to be banned, with the navy opening fire at fisherman this morning who were at a distance of just three miles from the coast.
All crossings into Gaza had been closed on Monday after Palestinians reacted to occupation force’s killing of a man at the fence separating Israel from Gaza. Occupation forces then used a bulldozer to carry the lifeless body of 27-year-old Mohammed Al-Naem away, confiscating it and not allowing his family to bury him.
