Gazans denying shark reports
If it wasn't the Nine Days, I would open this one with the theme from the movie Jaws. Hamas is denying the presence of sharks off the Gaza coast. Gaza official Mahmoud Kabarati on Tuesday denied media reports that sharks had been spotted on the Gaza Strip's coastline.Those Shayetet 13 guys are so clever. Heh.
According to reports in the Israeli media on Tuesday, sharks had ventured near the Gaza shore because of environmental changes in the Mediterranean.
The sharks were attracted by the depth of the water off Gaza's coast and by the large number of fishing boats, the reports said.
Kabarati, who heads Gaza's federation of fishermen and water sports, said the claims were false.
"It is known at an international level that water off the coast is deeper in the south which means it is shallower in the Gaza Strip's coasts," he said.
He added that Israel restricted fishing boats to three nautical miles from the coastline, and that Gaza fishermen barely caught any fish.

How long will it take some imam to declare that the sharks were introduced & bred for those waters by Mossad?
The Navy had better stop chumming the water. It is that or Sammy the Shark is back!
And if Sammy is back, Vinnie the Vulture should be sighted soon.
