If you read the last paragraph it states that they fire warning shots if get to close to military and Gazans approached troops and ignored calls to keep their distance.

Israel’s army, which is not at the sites but secures them from a distance, says it only fires warning shots if crowds get too close to its forces. The military on Saturday said it fired warning shots near Gaza’s southernmost city of Rafah after a group of suspects approached troops and ignored calls to keep their distance.
