Palestinians Claim Three Gaza Fisherman Killed by Israeli Fire; Army Denies
Nizar Ayash, chairman of the Gaza Fishermen's Association, said that the three fishermen were hit by a projectile
near to Khan Younis. The Israeli military said in response that "the Israeli navy did not fire" at the Strip, and
that it is investigating the reports. Earlier in the day, WAFA reported that Israeli forces opened fire and water
cannons at fishermen while sailing at about three nautical miles from the shore, causing partial damage to at least
one boat and forcing fishermen to return to the shore. (Haaretz+
