Israeli soldiers, stationed across the perimeter fence, fire many live rounds at Palestinian farmers, Sunday, while working on their lands east of Khan Younis, in the southern part of the besieged Gaza Strip.

Eyewitnesses said the soldiers fired sporadic rounds of live ammunition into the farmlands in the al-Fakhari area, east of Khan Younis.

They added that the attack did not lead to casualties but forced the Palestinians out of their lands in fear of further Israeli military violence.

It is worth mentioning that the army frequently attacks farmers, shepherds, workers, and fishermen along the easter parts of the coastal region and in Palestinian territorial waters, leading to dozens of casualties, including fatalities, in addition to preventing the Palestinians from tending to their lands and from fishing to provide for their families.

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