Israeli naval forces detained ten fishermen operating off the coast of Zawayda in Gaza, the Ma'an news agency reported. The arrests took place during operations in the territory's coastal waters, where Palestinian fishermen regularly work despite persistent restrictions imposed by Israeli authorities on maritime activity.
The circumstances that prompted the detention and the specific location where the fishermen were apprehended remained unclear. Israeli naval blockade policies have long limited Gaza's fishing zones, confining vessels to waters within a few kilometers of shore and frequently resulting in arrests and equipment seizures.
