Israeli rabbi condones Olive theft in West Bank
Hardline Israeli Rabbi Dov Lior issued a fatwa permitting settlers to pick olives from Palestinian lands in the West Bank and seize their harvest, claiming that the land ownership belongs to the Jewish people and that Palestinian farmers have abandoned their crops due to Israeli security measures. The fatwa sparked religious and ethical criticism within Israel, with some religious organizations considering it incitement to theft and encouraging assaults. Meanwhile, the region is experiencing an increase in attacks against Palestinian farmers and the destruction of their property during the olive season, with dozens of assaults, injuries, and attacks on journalists recorded.
