GAZA, June 6 (KUNA) -- A Palestinian fisherman in his twenties was mildly
injured when the Israeli gunboats attacked his fishing boat, among others, off
the southern coasts of Gaza's Rafah City, Palestinian medical source said on
Saturday.
The fisherman received two bullets in the hand and the chest, and was later
hospitalized, the source told KUNA.
Israeli gunboats shelled Palestinian fishing boats earlier today in
different regions off the southern coasts of Gaza Strip.
Israeli vessels target Palestinian fishing boats on a daily basis,
restraining them from fishing at a distance exceeding three miles, an act
aimed at preventing them from smuggling weapons into Gaza through the sea.
