The pressure and advocacy department in the Union of Agricultural Work Committees said that the Israeli occupation forces continued to violate the rights of fishermen through direct and indirect attacks on them.
She stressed that through its fishermen committees, 8 violations and direct attacks were documented during December 2019, which were shootings and pumping water towards boats, and these attacks resulted in the loss of dozens of fishing nets belonging to 8 fishing boats, in addition to partial damage to two boats. .
The Department of Pressure and Advocacy suggested that the number of violations and assaults against fishermen decreased during last December due to the decrease in fishermen entering the sea due to the frequent air depressions during this month, in addition to reducing the fishing area for several days, in addition to manipulating the fishing areas permitted by fishermen by the Israeli occupation freedom
