Israeli extremist settlers attacked on Saturday Palestinian farmers while picking olives in their lands located within Salfit and Nablus districts, forcing them to leave their lands.

In Salfit, fanatic settlers attacked and caused damage to olive trees in the village of Yasuf, east of the city.

According to local sources, a number of settlers broke about seven 20-year-old olive trees in the Al-Wadi area, north of the Yasuf.

Two days ago, dozens of settlers attacked farmers while picking olive fruits north of the same village, before being confronted by the residents, forcing them to flee.

In Nablus, Jewish settlers attacked, under the protection of Israeli occupation forces, the villages of Jaloud and Qusra, south of the city, forcing the farmers to leave their lands at gunpoint.

Since October 7, 2023, Israeli occupation army and settlers have escalated their attacks and offensives against Palestinian farmers in the West Bank, including assaulting farmers, stealing their olive crops, and uprooting and breaking olive trees.
