Israel has left much of the fishing fleet powerless in Gaza.

Fishermen prepare their fishing nets in the port of Gaza City on March 24, 2008. The sailors in Gaza at the start of the fishing season, have run out of fuel and cannot use their motor boats due to a crippling embargo imposed by Israel. Israel has left much of the fishing fleet in the impoverished Palestinian enclave lying idle, beached in Gaza's port. (UPI Photo/Ismael Mohamad)
