An Egyptian naval ship opened fire at a Palestinian fishing boat off the coast of the southern Gaza Strip early Saturday, Maan News Agency reported citing a Palestinian union official.

Nizar Ayyash, spokesman for the union of Gaza fishermen, told Ma'an that the Egyptian navy fired warning shots at a fishing boat off the coast of Rafah.

The fishing boat was nearing Egyptian territorial waters, Ayyash said.

The Egyptian ship was stationed just within Palestinian territorial waters at the time, he added.

Ayyash said that the Gaza fishing boat sailed away after the warning shots were fired. No injuries were reported.

In August, Egyptian forces fired at Gaza fishermen, injuring two men and arresting six others.

For decades the 'palestinians' have been involved in terrorism and not much else - so it's very understandable that countries are wary of them straying into their waters or territory.

My only surprise is that despite the fact the 'palestinians' have now been confirmed to have involvement in two separate suicide attacks against Iranian targets, that Tehran still remains their friend.

Oh so you're back to this again, turns out you were only civilized temporarily....

First of all, what is not civilised about what I said?

What are 'palestinians' known for in history? great achievements? innovation? contributing positively to the world?

Sadly, not.

What they are most synonymous with is terrorism. Whether that's their international terrorism from the 60's to the 80's (and to this day on a lesser scale) or their regional terrorism against many nations.

'palestinian' history is violence. They have been consumed by it and obviously Egypt is concerned enough not to allow them into their territory.

Also what I said about 'palestinians' attacking Iranian targets comes from Lebanese news sources - so take it up with them if you think that's also wrong.
