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.
Analysis on independent Palestinian sea operations are usually discussed within the context of final status agreements during peace negotiations with Israel. Since the declaration of the State of Palestine, most sources that mention the term refer to only the coastal regions along the Gaza Strip.
