Israeli soldiers, stationed across the border fence, in the southern part of the Gaza strip, opened fire, on Tuesday mornings, at farmers in their own lands, east of Khan Younis, and Rafah, in the southern part of the coastal region.
The soldiers fired many live rounds at the farmers, while working on their lands, close to the border fence, east of Khan Younis, forcing them to leave in fear of additional escalation.
A similar attack was carried out against farmers near Sofa area, east of Rafah, in the southern part of the Gaza Strip, while the soldiers also fired flares.
Such attacks are part of daily Israeli violations against Palestinian farmers and workers, in areas close to the border fence, in addition to frequent attacks against fishermen and their boats, in Palestinian territorial waters, in the besieged and impoverished Gaza strip.
