The jurisdiction of the Palestinian Naval Police is restricted to 6 nautical miles off the coast of the Gaza Strip
The Palestinian Naval Police, also known as the Gaza Marine (English: Gazan Navy), is a branch of the Palestinian National Security Forces whose task includes securing the coastline of the Gaza Strip. The Naval Police was established in the Gaza–Jericho Agreement signed on 4 May 1994. Under the Oslo II Accord, its activities are restricted to 6 nautical miles from the coast.[1]
Analysis on independent Palestinian sea operations are usually discussed within the context of final status agreements during peace negotiations with Israel.[2] Since the declaration of the State of Palestine, most sources that mention the term refer to only the coastal regions along the Gaza Strip.[3]
