Israel opens fire on Palestinian fishing boats

GAZA, Dec 5 (KUNA) -- Israeli gunships opened fire Saturday on Palestinian fishing boats off the southern coasts of Gaza Strip, but no casualties were reported.
Local radio reports said that the gunships stationed out at sea, opposite Khan Younes and Rafah, opened fire on the fishing boats, which headed back to bay to avoid damage.
Palestinian fishing boats are targeted daily, as Israel claims that they exceed the three-mile fishing limit. (end) mzt.ema KUNA 051257 Dec 09NNNN
