 Over the last 10 years, the economic situation in Gaza has been deteriorating. All sectors, including fishermen, have struggled to make ends meet. Around 4,000 fishermen have been facing several challenges, such as the limited fishing area and the high fuel prices, which has affected the variety and the quantity of fish they catch every day. These fishermen provide for 24,000 people in the Gaza Strip. I am Mefle Abu Riala, a 35-year-old fisherman. I have been a fisherman for the past 15 years. I learned fishing from my father and grandfather. I have five children and I go fishing with my six brothers. We are the breadwinners for 50 people. I leave home at 5 a.m. to go to the port, get the fuel, and go fishing. I earn around 200 to 300 shekels, but the fuel costs more than what we earn. We sell the catch for 300 shekels, but we pay 350 shekels for the fuel. The main challenge that we face is the imposed limitation on the fishing area. We are allowed to fish up to six nautical miles, but we can only fish up to five nautical miles since the sixth mile is a gray zone. The most important solutions for fishermen in the Gaza Strip are the extension of the fishing area and the reduction of fuel prices.
