Israel troops kill Gaza 'fishermen' - Middle East - Al Jazeera English: "Israeli soldiers have killed three Palestinians along the Gaza-Israeli border near Beit Lahiya, Palestinian medics have said.

Gaza's ministry of health said on Thursday that the men killed overnight were fishermen who were working with their nets on the shore, however: a spokesman for the Democratic Front for the Liberation of Palestine sent a text message to reporters identifying one of the men as a member of the group.
