Israeli occupation forces (IOF) blocked farmers from tending to their land in Badiya village to the west of Salfit on Saturday and confiscated two tractors.
Local sources said that IOF soldiers raided Khilat Hassan in Badiya and prevented two farmers from ploughing their land and took from them two tractors. The tractors were taken to the nearby Karnei Shomron settlement they added.
The IOF and settlers systematically harass Palestinian farmers in the area and confiscate their agricultural tools to dissuade them from cultivating their land incurring heavy losses and leave it easy prey for the expansion of Jewish settlements
