According to local sources, Israeli warships opened fire at Palestinian fishing vessels setting sail within the six-nautical-mile zone, off al-Nusairat’s coast, in central Gaza Strip.

The current six-nautical-mile fishing zone falls drastically short of the twenty nautical miles allocated to Palestinian fishermen in the 1993 Oslo Accords.

Israeli planes on Sunday sprayed toxic pesticides on Palestinian farmlands along Gaza's eastern border.
Israel regularly sprays Palestinian citizens' agricultural lands located near the border with dangerous pesticides which destroy the crops.
Farmers and eyewitnesses told the PIC reporter that Israeli planes started in the early morning hours to spray farmlands east of Gaza city with poisonous chemical substances, affirming that these pesticides have a negative effect on the crops and cause farmers to suffer huge losses.
Farmer Abu al-Said explained that the effects of Israeli pesticides appear two or three days after they are sprayed.
Israel claims that it only sprays weed killers near the border fence, but it usually sprays hundreds of dunums of land around the targeted areas killing and damaging Palestinian crops.

Israeli navy forces and army troopers routinely open fire at Palestinian fishermen sailing within the six-nautical-mile zone off the Gaza shores and farmers working in farmlands along the border with 1948 occupied Palestine, flagrantly violating the ceasefire deal that was struck following 2014’s offensive on the coastal enclave.
Israeli Soldiers Kill A Palestinian Farmer In Khan Younis
The Palestinian Health Ministry has reported, on Saturday evening, that a Palestinian farmer died from serious wounds he suffered at noon, when Israeli soldiers shot him while working on his land, in Khan Younis, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip.
The Health Ministry said that Mohammad Ata Abu Jame’, 59, was shot by the soldiers, and suffered a serious injury, while working on his own land, in Khuza’a area, east of Khan Younis.
He was rushed to Nasser Hospital in Khan Younis, but died from his serious wounds, on Saturday evening.
His wife said that she was heading to the family’s land to bring food for her husband, before she heard the shots, and then she heard the husband screaming in pain and asking her to call for an ambulance.
The son and his mother, said that there was no reason for the soldiers to shoot Mohammad, because he was just working on his land, and the situation was calm, and added that the man was very healthy, and always loved to work and plant the land.
“Our only problem is that our land is located near the border fence which was installed by Israel,” the son said, “They shot him for nothing — this was the first time that the soldiers open fire at us on our land…”
There were no protests near the border area when the soldiers shot the Palestinian man, and there was no reason for opening fire.
It is worth mentioning that the army frequently invades Palestinian lands located close to the border fence, and constantly opens fire at farmers and workers, in issue that led to dozens of casualties, including many fatalities. Video

The Israeli occupation authorities started the construction of a new separation wall dismembering Palestinian communities in Deir Balout, west of Salfit.
