Israeli navy ships opened fire, on Tuesday morning, on a number of Palestinian fishing boats, close to Gaza City shore, causing damage but no injuries.
The fishers were only four nautical miles away from the shore, in the Sudaniyya area, northwest of Gaza City.
On Monday evening, Israeli Navy ships attacked fishing boats, near the Nusseirat refugee camp in central Gaza, and kidnapped two fishers identified as Zeid Tarroush and Mohammad Baker, in their twenties.
