October 27, 2022

Israeli occupation naval forces attacked a Palestinian fishing boat with live ammunition and gas bombs before abducting five Palestinian fishermen, including three siblings, and seizing the boat.

Local sources reported that the Israeli occupation navy gunboats attacked the fishermen near the shore of the Al-Sudaniyya area in the northern Gaza Strip and fired live rounds and gas canisters at their boat.

Such attacks are part of constant Israeli violations against the Palestinians, especially the fishermen, farmers, and workers in the besieged and impoverished Gaza Strip, and result in dozens of casualties, including fatalities, in addition to intense property damage and the seizure of many boats after abducting the fishermen.
