Israeli forces fire at Gaza farmers, injure young man

GAZA CITY (Ma'an) -- "Israeli forces opened fire early Saturday at Palestinian farmers in their fields in the southern Gaza Strip, injuring a young man, medics told Ma'an.

Palestinian medical sources told Ma'an that 22-year-old Ismail Najjar was injured when Israeli troops surprised farmers east of Khan Younis refugee camp with gunshots."

According to Maan, an Israeli army spokeswoman stated "Palestinian "terrorists" tried to conceal an explosive devise near the border area with Israel."

"Soldiers called on the suspects to stop," she said. After firing shots into the air, she said the soldiers fired at a Palestinian's "lower extremities and identified a hit."

Here, we have yet another unlawful attack on farmers and an unlawful injury of a farmer in Occupied Gaza.

THE farmers were attacked inside Gaza, they were not in Israel, but Israel continues to treat land inside Gaza's borders as if it were her own and regularly opens fire on Palestinian farmers working in Gaza on their lands.
