On Sunday, Israeli soldiers fired many live rounds at Palestinian farmers and their lands in the northeastern part of the Gaza Strip and abducted two young men near the fence in the southern part of the coastal region.

The soldiers, stationed across the perimeter fence, fired a barrage of live ammunition at the Palestinian farmers and their lands northeast of Beit Hanoun, in the northern part of the Gaza Strip.

The soldiers also fired several gas bombs at the Palestinians, forcing them to leave their lands. There have been no reports of injuries.

Also, the army abducted two young men on Palestinian lands near the perimeter fence, east of Khan Younis, and took them to an unknown destination.

The army said the two “attempted to cross the fence,” however they frequently attack Palestinians, especially farmers and shepherds, just for approaching the fence across the eastern parts of the coastal region.

On Saturday, Israeli soldiers fired many live rounds at Palestinian farmers and fishermen in several parts of the Gaza Strip.

The attacks are part of constant Israeli violations against the Palestinians, especially the fishermen, farmers, shepherds, and workers in the besieged and impoverished Gaza Strip, and resulted in dozens of casualties, including fatalities, in addition to severe property damage and the confiscation of many boats after abducting the fishermen.

In March of 2021, the Palestinian Interior Ministry in Gaza said Israeli mines were responsible for an explosion that led to the death of three fishermen.
