Al-Qassam Website - The Israeli occupation naval forces opened fire on Saturday on Palestinian fishing boats sailing off the northern coast of the besieged Gaza Strip.

Local sources reported that machine guns mounted on Israeli occupation's war boats opened live fire and fired tear gas at fishing boats sailing within a few nautical miles off the northern shores of the impoverished enclave. No injuries were reported.

The Israeli occupation navy regularly attacks Palestinian fishermen off the coast of the blockaded territory, forcing them out of the sea.
