A warning shot is a military term describing harmless artillery shot or gunshot intended to call attention and demand some action of compliance. It is recognised as signalling intended confrontations on land, sea and air.
As an analogy, "warning shot" can be said of any action of declaration, especially a demonstration of power, intended or perceived as a last warning before hostile measures.

By Eva Bartlett- Farmed fish are now better than sea fish in Gaza. They shouldnt be, but because of the sewage in Gazas sea and the Israeli fishing restrictions, farmed fish are cleaner and healthier than sea fish.
It is almost impossible for our fishermen to fish in the sea, so fish farms provide another source of salt water fish.
Compared to the late 1990s, before the Israeli-led siege choking Gaza since Hamass election in 2006, fishermens catches are meagre, from a former over 3,500 tons per year to the current less than 500 tons a year. Fishermen, forced by Israeli gunfire to fish within less than three miles, at the same time deplete future stocks of fish.
...
The greatest problem was the complete destruction of the Ekhail fish farm during the 2008-2009 Israeli war on Gaza. It was bulldozed, everything destroyed.
Rebuilt on its rented plot of land, the fish farm is just five minutes by car outside Gaza city. Sea waves crash 50 metres beyond the tent-shaded pools, the paradox of Gazas off-limits sea audible and visible.
The region has a history of dependency on the rich catches of the sea, something reflected in the fish- based meals traditional to Gaza and the legacy of fishermen in trawlers, speedboats, and hand-paddled boats the size of a canoe.
The development of aquaculture reflects the continued ingenuity of Palestinians in Gaza, determined to create sources of employment and food in the face of the ruthless, internationally backed Israeli siege on Gaza.
But the rise of aquaculture also reflects the continued international apathy to the plight of Gazas roughly 4,000 fishermen who, on a daily basis, are shot at, shelled at, water-cannoned with an excrement-scented chemical, and abducted by the Israeli navy from within Palestinian waters.
A boat crewed by solidarity activists came under fire Saturday as it attempted to sail further than three miles off Gaza’s coast, breaking a sea blockade.
The Olivia boat’s purpose is to try and defend Palestinian fishermen in Gazan waters.
A European woman onboard the boat told Ma’an that when she informed sailors that she was helping fishermen, one of them said, “Even if the whole EU comes here, they will not pass, neither can they defy Israeli decisions. The decisions say each boat that tries to break the sea blockade will be sunk.”
On Saturday, the Olivia sailed to bring back remnants of a fishing boat which the Israelis damaged earlier. Three internationals were onboard, and they managed to anchor near Shati refugee camp west of Gaza City
Head of the Gazan association of fishing and sports Mahfouth Kabariti said the solidarity activists managed to bring back some fishing equipment belonging to the Al-Habil family, whose boat was sunk.
He said two Americans and one Swedish citizen were on board the Olivia.
An Israeli military spokeswoman did not return a call seeking comment.
Really?Gaza has 20 miles of water. The fishermen just want to fish their own water.

When did that happen!
I thought only Sovereign countries had "20 miles of water."
And "Gaza" isn't Even a Country-to-be, Palestine probably is.
