Palestinian farmers and human rights workers from the International Solidarity Movement come under fire from Israeli troops.

The farmers from Letaemat in the southern Gaza Strip are harvesting crops on Palestinian land in the 'buffer zone'. Israeli soldiers, as a matter of policy and from positions on their side of the Green Line, shoot at anyone within this area.

On this occassion, the soldiers fired many shots into the air, and some over the heads of the farmers and internationals, before getting back into their jeeps and leaving - having acheived very little.

Typically their 'warning shots' come dangerously close, and occassionally the intent is to kill or maim, as is evident in these videos:
