GAZA, (PIC)-- Dozens of Palestinian citizens managed on Monday to remove the border fence set up by the occupation east of Johr al-Dik town and the Bureij refugee camp in the central Gaza Strip. Eyewitnesses told Quds Press that dozens of Palestinian civilians, who have arrived to their agricultural fields east of the town of Johr al-Dik and Bureij refugee camp, managed to remove the border fence separating the Gaza Strip and the occupied territories in 1948. The sources added that the Israeli soldiers opened fire in the air to disperse the crowd. It is noted that the truce agreement between the Palestinian resistance and the occupation under Egyptian mediation on Wednesday allowed the Palestinians to have access to their lands along the border fence, where they were banned by the occupation forces to reach their agriculture lands for long years where the occupation was imposing a buffer zone of ​​300 meters inside the Gaza strip.
