Israeli settlers attack Palestinian olive pickers in the West Bank

Today, Saturday, extremist settlers attacked olive pickers in various parts of the West Bank, in a scene that is repeated every season, but this period in particular witnesses a series of brutal attacks against citizens in light of the successive developments of the Israeli aggression against the Gaza Strip and the West Bank.


In Salfit, today, Saturday, settlers from the “Beduel” settlement attacked citizens and farmers in the town of Kafr al-Dik, west of Salfit, with live bullets, and prevented them from reaching their lands to pick olives.


Local sources reported that the settlers forced all farmers in the western area of the town to leave their lands, amid heavy live ammunition, and under the protection of the Israeli occupation army.


Dozens of colonists from the “Refafa” colony attacked olive pickers in Derastiya and Haris, and forced them to leave their lands at gunpoint, with the protection of occupation soldiers.


In Hebron, armed colonists attacked olive pickers in the Sha’b al-Butm area in Masafer Yatta in the south, while they were picking olives on their lands.


Colonists also detained citizens’ sheep in the Al-Daraj area in the Badia, east of Yatta, and prevented shepherds from receiving them.


Dozens of colonists uprooted 10 perennial olive trees, accompanied by the occupation army in Qusra, even though the area where the farmers were picking olives is located in Area B, and does not require coordination.


In Ramallah, colonists raided the “Al-Shorfa” area in the village of Deir Jarir, east of Ramallah, and stole special olive-picking equipment, at gunpoint, belonging to citizen Jad Samih.


In Tulkarm, dozens of colonists assaulted citizens while they were picking olives in the Al-Qurain area, near Khirbet Al-Hamam.
