"Israeli" troops have shot and killed three Palestinian men who were trying to pass the border zone in the northern Gaza Strip, medical sources say.

The medics said they recovered the bodies near the northern border of the blockaded coastal sliver on Thursday before dawn. The three were said to have been killed near the evacuated Doget settlement, north of Beit Lahiya, Palestinian (Ma'an) news agency reported Thursday.


Medics were alerted and permitted by Israeli forces occupying the border region to enter the "no-go zone" to retrieve the bodies, spokesman of the higher committee of ambulance and emergency services Adham Abu Salmiya told Ma'an. Beit Lahiya residents said they heard a helicopter flying and shots fired at approximately 2:15 a.m. The retrieved bodies were transferred to the Kamal Odwan Hospital in Beit Lahiya. Initial inquiries revealed that at least two of the men were fishermen.
