<p>Israeli warplanes and artillery attacked targets in the blockaded
Gaza Strip early this morning while the fishing rights for Gazans were
drastically reduced, the Palestinian news agency WAFA reported.</p>
<p>An Israeli warplane fired two missiles at a site in the northern Gaza
Strip, causing heavy damage to the site and neighboring buildings but
no bodily harm.</p>
<p>Another fighter jet fired two missiles at agricultural land east of
Beit Hanoun, also in the north, causing a deep hole in the ground, and
two other missiles at a location east of Rafah in the southern Gaza
Strip, causing damage to property.</p>
<p>Israeli artillery also shelled a location east of Deir al-Balah in
the central Gaza Strip causing heavy damage to the location and nearby
property.</p>
<p>An Israeli drone also targeted a UNRWA primary school in the Al-Shati refugee camp, west of Gaza city.</p>
<p>At the same time, the Israeli occupation authorities reduced the
fishing area for Gaza fishermen and stopped the entry of fuel into Gaza
as part of its collective punishment policy against the Gaza Strip and
its two million impoverished population.</p>
<p>Israel claims the attacks and collective punishment came following
the firing of incendiary balloons from Gaza into bordering Israeli areas
that caused a fire but not bodily harm.</p>
<p><span>Gaza, with a population of 2 million, has been under a hermetic
Israeli siege since 2006, when the Palestinian group Hamas won the
democratic legislative elections in occupied Palestine. Since then,
Israel has carried out numerous bombing campaigns and several major
wars, that resulted in the death of thousands of people.</span></p>
