Palestinian Farmers and Olive Harvest
The olive harvest season in Palestine faces unprecedented challenges due to escalating settler attacks, which include setting trees on fire, stealing crops, and damaging roads. These acts threaten agricultural production and pose a serious risk to the livelihoods of Palestinian families. Such assaults have resulted in the martyrdom and injury of farmers, in addition to the theft of large quantities of olives and the sale of stolen oil. Access to the lands has become increasingly difficult due to Israeli restrictions. Despite these hardships, farmers remain determined to stay on their lands and harvest their crops. The Farmers' Union organizes collective harvest campaigns, provides equipment, and works to reduce the risks they face, conducting support campaigns in around 60 Palestinian villages. These attacks are part of an Israeli policy encouraging crop theft and increasing pressure on farmers. Meanwhile, the local and international communities continue to strive to protect farmers' rights and bolster their resilience in the face of these challenges.
