GAZA CITY- A Gaza fisherman was killed by fire from an "Israeli" naval vessel.
"Hani Ibrahim Annajar, 27, a resident of the Shatti refugee camp in Gaza City, was hit in the head by a bullet after "Israeli" warships opened fire on his vessel off the coast of Gaza," a medical source said Monday, without specifying how far offshore.
"Fishermen who were with him brought him to the Al-Aqsa Martyrs` Hospital but he was dead on arrival."
"Israeli" warships continue to patrol Gaza`s coastal waters after the withdrawal of troops and settlers last year.
Patrols were stepped up after the capture of an "Israeli" soldier in a deadly cross-border raid in June prompted troops to re-enter the territory.
