URGENT APPEAL: Ref: UA 05 / 13.
VIOLATIONS: illegal restrictions on fishing access to the Palestinian territorial waters
Under
the government of Israel’s illegal occupation, Palestinian families are
severely deprived of a vital food source because of Israel’s illegal
restrictions placed on access by fishermen to the Palestinian
territorial waters off the coast of the Gaza Strip.
In
the years since 1994, the area in which Israel allows Palestinian
fishermen to fish has been gradually reduced from the 20 nautical miles
provided for under the Oslo Accords to 3 nautical miles in 2009 as part
of a naval blockade imposed through the use of live fire, harassment,
and unlawful arrests and arbitrary detention. The severely limited
fishing area, combined with a near total ban on exports, has brought
Gaza’s fishing industry to the brink of collapse, bringing the number of
working fishermen from approximately 10,000 in 1999 to less than 3,200
today.

Appeal |
| H.E. OLIVIER DE SCHUTTER,
UN Special Rapporteur on the right to food
Your Excellency
Under
the government of Israel’s illegal occupation, Palestinian families are
severely deprived of a vital food source because of Israel’s illegal
restrictions placed on access by fishermen to the Palestinian
territorial waters off the coast of the Gaza Strip.
The
responsibilities of your office are to ensure that member states
fulfil their legal obligations as set out in article 2 of the
International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
(ICESCR).
The
Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in General Comment
No. 12 also defined the obligations that States parties have to fulfil
in order to implement the right to adequate food at the national level.
These are as follows:
The
United Nations has been aware that since Israel’s illegal blockade of
Gaza that the people of Gaza’s right to food i.e. the right to have
regular, permanent and unrestricted access has been violated by Israel
and in the 7 years the United Nations has failed the people of Gaza
particularly in the near collapse of the essential fishing industry.
In
the years since 1994, the area in which Israel allows Palestinian
fishermen to fish has been gradually reduced from the 20 nautical miles
provided for under the Oslo Accords to 3 nautical miles in 2009 as part
of a naval blockade imposed through the use of live fire, harassment,
and unlawful arrests and arbitrary detention. The severely limited
fishing area, combined with a near total ban on exports, has brought
Gaza’s fishing industry to the brink of collapse, bringing the number of
working fishermen from approximately 10,000 in 1999 to less than 3,200
today.
Under
the November 2012 ceasefire between the Israeli and Palestinian
authorities, the fishing limit was supposedly extended to six nautical
miles. Fishermen began to sail further out to sea, resulting in somewhat
greater yields of fish. However, attacks against fishermen continued,
even within the previous three mile limit.
Since 2003, the following Palestinian fishermen have been killed by Israel:
- Hani al-Najar, (27), 2/10/2006
- Natheer Farhat, (37), 10/12/2005
- Ziyad Al-Bardawil, (22) 3/12/2005
- Ibrahim Abu Saqr 9/3/2003 (believed to have been drowned by the Israeli Navy)
Between
22 November 2012 and 28 February 2013, Israel has violated the terms of
the Egyptian-brokered truce, post Operation Pillar of Cloud, over 108
times, including, 41 shooting incidents, resulting in 4 injuries. In
addition, 42 fishermen have been detained in 11 arrest incidents.
Furthermore, 8 boats have been damaged, and 8 boats have been
confiscated.
Israel’s
attacks against Palestinian fishermen in the Gaza Strip, who do not
pose any threat to the security of the Israeli naval forces, constitute a
flagrant violation of international humanitarian and human rights law.
The fishing exclusion zone, maintained through arbitrary arrests and
attacks, constitutes a measure of collective punishment, which is
prohibited under Article 33 of the Fourth Geneva Convention.The right to
work, including in just and favourable conditions, is provided for
under Article 23 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, as well
as under Article 6 and 7 of the International Covenant on Economic,
Social and Cultural Rights (ICESCR). Moreover, Article 11 of the ICESCR
recognises "the right of everyone to an adequate standard of living for
himself and his family, including adequate food, clothing and housing,
and to the continuous improvement of living conditions."
I
urge the United Nations to demand of Israel that the blockade of Gaza
is immediately lifted and that Palestinian fishermen enjoy access to
Palestinian territorial waters in line with international law.

Israel opens fire at Gaza fishermen to impose new limit
GAZA CITY
(Ma'an) -- Israeli forces opened fire at fishermen off Gaza's coast on
Saturday, forcing them to comply with a newly imposed reduced fishing
zone following a rocket attack on southern Israel.
Israel's army announced Thursday that the fishing zone for Palestinians in Gaza would be reduced from six to three miles following a rocket attack.
Fishermen in Gaza told Ma'an that Israel's navy opened fire at them on Saturday to prevent them from going out further than 3 miles.
Mahfouth Kabariti, head of a federation for fishermen and water sports, confirmed that the Israeli navy had set up new signs defining the permitted fishing zone.
The zone had been extended to 11 km as part of an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire that ended an eight-day conflict between Israel and Hamas in November, in which 166 Palestinians and six Israelis were killed.
The newly imposed Israeli restriction does not necessarily mean that Israel has abandoned the ceasefire agreement, Gaza-based political analyst Wisam Afifa told Ma'an.
Rather, Israel is trying to use the terms of the agreement which affect humanitarian issues as a means to exert pressure on Hamas and other Palestinian resistance factions to adhere to the ceasefire deal, he said.
"When missiles are fired by an unidentified source in Gaza, that leaves question marks about the launchers and their goals," he added.
Hamas complained to Egypt on Friday after Israel suspended part of a Cairo-brokered truce agreement. An Egyptian official confirmed that the Hamas complaint had been received, saying Israel had complained separately about the rocket attack.
The official said Cairo would contact both sides to "restore their commitment to the truce".
Magles Shoura al-Mujahedeen, a hardline Islamist Salafi faction with a small presence in Gaza and the neighboring Egyptian Sinai, claimed responsibility for the salvo on Sderot.
In an online statement, the group said it had struck during Obama's visit to show up Israeli air defenses - a likely reference to Israel's US-backed Iron Dome rocket shield.

Hamas appeals to Egypt after Israel halves fishing zone
By Dan Williams
GAZA CITY
(Reuters) -- Hamas complained to Egypt on Friday after Israel suspended
part of a Cairo-brokered truce agreement by halving Palestinian access
to fishing waters in response to a rocket attack from the Gaza Strip.
Thursday's salvo at the Israeli border town of Sderot, which caused no casualties, coincided with a visit to Israel and the Israeli-occupied West Bank by US President Barack Obama.
It was claimed by a small al-Qaida-linked faction that has challenged the Islamist Hamas group's rule in the Gaza Strip.
Israel, which holds Hamas responsible for any violence emanating from the enclave, retaliated by shutting the Kerem Shalom commercial crossing on the Gaza border and by enforcing a newly restricted 5 km wide fishing zone.
The zone had been extended to 11 km as part of an Egyptian-brokered ceasefire that ended an eight-day conflict between Israel and Hamas in November, in which 166 Palestinians and six Israelis were killed.
"We have informed Cairo of this violation and we are waiting to hear a clear position from Egyptian mediators on this," Hamas spokesman Sami Abu Zuhri said, giving no indication that Hamas wanted to abandon the ceasefire arrangement.
An Egyptian official confirmed that the Hamas complaint had been received, saying Israel had complained separately about the rocket attack.
The official said Cairo would contact both sides to "restore their commitment to the truce". Israel said on Thursday its new Gaza restrictions would be in place until further notice.
Magles Shoura al-Mujahedeen, a hardline Islamist Salafi faction with a small presence in Gaza and the neighboring Egyptian Sinai, claimed responsibility for the salvo on Sderot.
In an online statement, the group said it had struck during Obama's visit to show up Israeli air defenses - a likely reference to Israel's US-backed Iron Dome rocket shield.
Magles Shoura al-Muhajedeen and Hamas are both hostile to Israel. But the Salafis accuse Hamas of diluting Islamist doctrine by seeking accommodation with secular Palestinians.
Hamas has at times cracked down on the Salafis, seeing them as a threat to the stability of the impoverished Gaza Strip.
On Thursday the Hamas administration's spokesman Taher al-Nono questioned whether rockets had been fired from Gaza and reaffirmed commitment to the "mutual calm agreement brokered by Cairo".
Reducing Gaza's fishing waters spelled losses for some 3,000 Palestinians whose livelihood depends on the sea.
"There is nothing to catch within three miles from shore," said fisherman Talal Shweikh, 62. "All the fish that you see in the market today came from Egypt."

Israel to limit Gaza fishing zone after rocket fire
BETHLEHEM (Ma'an) --
Israel will reduce the Gaza fishing zone as punishment for Palestinians
in the Gaza Strip following a rocket attack, the Israeli military
announced Thursday.
"In response to the rocket fire earlier this morning ... the Prime Minister of the State of Israel, Mr. Benjamin Netanyahu, and the Minister of Defense, Mr. Moshe (Bogie) Yaalon, have instructed the IDF to narrow the permitted fishing zone for Palestinians in the Gaza Strip from six to three miles," the army said.
"Additionally, Kerem Shalom crossing will be closed. These changes will continue until the IDF is otherwise instructed by the political echelon.
"The IDF considers this incident with great severity and holds the Hamas terror organization responsible for any hostile activity emanating from the Gaza Strip."
The Palestinian minister of civil affairs Hussein al-Sheikh confirmed the measure.
"The Israeli side officially informed us that Kerem Shalom crossing is closed until further notice, and that the Gaza fishing zone has been reduced from 6 to 3 miles," al-Sheikh told Ma'an.

Gaza Strip: Attacks in the border areas and their consequences
Sunday, 03 March 2013 00:00
PCHR Fact Sheet February
2013
Following
disengagement from the Gaza Strip in September 2005, Israel unilaterally and
illegally established a so-called “buffer zone”, an area prohibited to
Palestinians along the land and sea borders of the Gaza Strip. The precise area
designated by Israel as a “buffer zone” is not clear and this Israeli policy is
typically enforced with live fire. The establishment of the ‘buffer zone’ is
illegal under both Israeli and international law.
Preventing
Palestinians from accessing their lands and fishing areas violates numerous
provisions of international human rights law, including the right to work, the
right to an adequate standard of living, and the right to the highest
attainable standard of health. Enforcing the “buffer zone” through the use of
live fire often results in, inter alia,
the direct targeting of civilians and/or indiscriminate attacks, both of which
constitute war crimes.
Following
the Israeli offensive on the Gaza Strip in November 2012, a ceasefire agreement
between Israel and Palestinian armed groups was brokered by the Egyptian
government, which included terms related to access to land and sea. In an online statement on 25 February 2013, the
Israeli Coordinator of Government Activities in the Territories (COGAT)
declared that fishermen could now access the sea up to six nautical miles
offshore, and that farmers could now access lands in the border area up to 100m
from the border fence. However, both references have since been removed from
the statement.
Dimensions
On land,
inside Palestinian territory
Distance from
the border fence, up to which access is permitted:
· Second Intifada (2000): 150 metres
· According to Israel (2010) : 300 metres
· 22 November 2012: unclear parameters
· 25 February 2013: 100 metres
· 11 March 2013: 300 metres
In reality,
attacks against civilians take place anywhere up to approximately 1.5
kilometres inside the border fence. This constitutes approximately 17% of the
total territory of the Gaza Strip.
|
At sea,
off the coast of the Gaza Strip
Distance from
the shore, up to which access is permitted:
· Oslo Accords (1994): 20 nautical miles (nm)
· Bertini Commitment (2002): 12 nm
· October 2006: 6 nm
· End of 2007 : 3 nm
· 22 November 2012: 6 nm
In
addition, access is consistently denied in the following areas:
· 1.5 nm in the north along the maritime boundary
with Israel
· 1 nm in the south along the maritime boundary
with Egypt
|
Impact
On land
· Approximately 27,000 dunums, 35% of the Gaza
Strip's agricultural land, can only be accessed under high personal risk,
as Israeli attacks may result in injury or death of civilians.
· 95% of the restricted area is arable land.
· After the evacuation of settlements (2005) and ‘Operation
Cast Lead’ (2008-2009), the majority of Palestinian families living in the
border areas abandoned their land and homes.
|
At sea
· Palestinians are completely prevented from accessing
85% of the Palestinian maritime areas recognised in the 1994 Gaza
Jericho Agreement.
· Approximately 3,700 fishermen work under high
personal risk every day at sea.
· Approximately 8,200 persons work in the fishing
industry.
· Approximately 65,000 persons, including
individuals who work in the fishing industry and their dependents, are
affected by the “buffer zone” restrictions at sea.
· The area near the coast is markedly over-fished.
