Israeli forces shot and injured a Palestinian fisherman in Gaza on Wednesday, the head of a local union said.
Nizar Ayyash told Ma'an that Atef Muhammad Baker, 19, was shot in the foot after Israeli naval boats opened fire at fishing boats off Gaza's northern coast.
The fishermen were within the Israeli-imposed fishing zone at the time of the incident, Ayyash added.
Baker was taken to hospital for treatment.
An Israeli army spokeswoman said several vessels deviated from the designated fishing zone and Israeli forces opened fire after they failed to respond to warning shots. more
