Palestinian fishermen try to catch small fish inside Gaza harbor August 05, 2007 in Gaza. Under the Palestinian Authority, fishermen were able to get permission from the Israeli Navy, which maintains a blockade just off the coast of Gaza, to fish several miles from shore. Since the takeover of Gaza by Hamas in June, fisherman have had a much tougher time getting the permission, and have been forced to fish close to shore or not leaving port at all, creating a further economic crisis in the strip. .
