Gaza,
The Israeli occupation army lifted a ban on Friday on Palestinian fishing boats putting to sea off Gaza, ending a measure imposed during deadly attacks on the coastal enclave earlier this month.
Chief of the Gaza fishermen Nizzar Ayyash said the Israeli side had told the competent authorities in Gaza of its intention to reopen permissible fishing areas to fishermen as of 10 o’clock on Friday morning
Ayyash added that the Gaza fishing zone is expected to reopen at a range of up to 12 nautical miles in some areas off the southern coast, but the nautical miles will be less than that in other areas, especially in the north.
The measure is seen as a first step in implementing a fragile truce meant to avert a new war between the Palestinian resistance and Israel.
