Israeli occupation soldiers seize olive harvest and damage vehicles in Lubban al-Sharqiya

NABLUS: Israeli occupation soldiers seized hundreds of kilograms of olives and attacked olive pickers and their vehicles today in the village of Lubban al-Sharqiya, located south of Nablus.

Local sources informed WAFA that the soldiers forced several families to leave their land near the Khan Lubban area, located near the village, allowing them to take the olive harvest. In addition to the seizure, soldiers also damaged the tires of three vehicles belonging to the olive pickers.

This year’s olive harvest season in the West Bank has seen Palestinians subjected to repeated attacks by Israeli occupation forces and colonists, with trees set on fire and damaged, crops stolen, and farmers prevented from reaching their lands or targeted while harvesting the crop.
