Israelis step up assaults on Palestinian olive groves in Nablus

Tuesday 9-January-2018

Israeli settlers continue to uproot dozens of Palestinian olive trees in Nablus’s town of Deir al-Hatab in the northern occupied West Bank.

Saad Omran a targeted landowner told the PIC that Israeli settlers residing in Elon Moreh illegal outposts uprooted over 25 olive trees from his groves just one day after they uprooted 50 olive trees and almonds.

According to Omran the targeted trees are over 50 years old and the settler assaults make part of Israeli intents to force Palestinians out of their land.

The locals appealed to the liaison authorities and local NGOs to take a firm response to such Israeli attacks.
