The Israeli occupation navy on Sunday morning opened fire at Palestinian fishermen and their boats off the coast of the besieged Gaza Strip.
According to local media sources, Israeli gunboats chased fishing boats and opened machinegun fire at them off the shores of al-Sudaniya and al-Waha areas in the northwest of Gaza.
