Occupation mechanisms open fire with their machine guns east of Khan Yunis

At dawn on Friday, Israeli occupation army mechanisms heavily opened fire with their machine guns towards citizens' lands and homes in the eastern areas of Khan Yunis city, located south of the Gaza Strip.

Sources reported that the Israeli targeting was directly concentrated in the areas adjacent to the border security fence, where the sounds of heavy gunfire clearly echoed throughout the residential neighborhoods near the area, causing a state of anxiety and panic among the local residents, especially children and women.

These military movements come within the framework of periodic sweeping operations carried out by the occupation army along the border strip of the Strip. Field sources confirmed that no injuries among Palestinian citizens have been reported as a result of this targeting so far.

Shooting operations are concentrated along the security fence, where gunfire is clearly heard inside nearby residential neighborhoods.
