Zionist enemy settlers attacked farmers in the town of Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, on Sunday morning, preventing them from harvesting their olives and seizing their equipment and quantities of the crop, for the second consecutive day.

Local sources reported that a group of settlers stormed the eastern area of the town and assaulted farmers as they worked on their land. They prevented them from continuing to harvest the olives before stealing their equipment and the olives they had collected.

The same sources noted that the area is subjected to repeated, almost daily attacks by settlers targeting farmers during the olive harvest season, obstructing their access to their land and their ability to cultivate it.

The latest attack came a day after settlers assaulted olive pickers in the Khallat Abu Huwain area of the same town, attacking them and forcing them to leave their land after stealing equipment and sheets they had been using to collect the fruit.

Settler attacks during the olive harvest season are not limited to targeting farmers and preventing them from gathering their crops. They also include uprooting old trees, bulldozing land, and destroying irrigation facilities and agricultural infrastructure, thereby damaging the foundations of Palestinian agricultural activity.

In this context, the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission recorded 62,916 attacks carried out by enemy forces and settlers against Palestinians, their land, and their property in the West Bank, including Al-Quds, from 7 October 2023 until the beginning of last month. Of these, 48,174 were carried out by enemy forces and 14,742 by settlers.
