A horde of extremist Jewish settlers uprooted and stole hundreds of olive saplings from a grove in Burqa town west of Nablus in the occupied West Bank.
According to local sources settlers destroyed a fence surrounding a plot of land belonging to a Palestinian citizen in Burqa town particularly near the road between Jenin and Nablus before uprooting and stealing 750 olive trees.
Settler violence against Palestinians is a daily issue in the West Bank. Instead of taking preventive action to combat their crimes the Israeli military and security authorities aid and abet settlers in harming Palestinians and seizing their lands.
