Israeli settlers destroy hundreds of olive seedlings in Al-Khader town
Occupied Palestine (QNN) – Israeli settlers destroyed on Thursday morning hundreds of olive seedlings and agricultural crops in the town of Al-Khader, south of Bethlehem, in the southern occupied West Bank.
Local sources reported that a group of settlers grazed a flock of sheep in the agricultural lands of Palestinians adjacent to the illegal settlement of Sidi Boaz, resulting in the destruction of 300 olive seedlings and agricultural crops.
The sources pointed out that the settlers destroyed 15 dunams of the lands belonging to the citizen Hesham Barmeel.
Israeli settlers attack Palestinians on a daily basis across the occupied territories under the so-called “Price Tag” banner. Such attacks always go unpunished by the Israeli occupation authorities.
These attacks often include assaults on Palestinians, slashing tyres, painting anti-Arab slogans, in addition to the cutting down of trees belonging to Palestinian farmers.
