UN condemns attack on Palestinian olive harvest
The United Nations has confirmed that Israeli settler attacks on the olive harvesting season in the West Bank serve as a means of displacement and theft. Over a two-week period, more than 160 attacks were recorded, involving live ammunition, arson of trees, and property destruction, with most carried out with or protected by occupation forces. These operations have resulted in the destruction of approximately 90% of olive trees in Gaza, amounting to two million trees, in addition to damage to 286,000 trees in the West Bank up to the end of September 2023. The sector's losses are estimated at $157 million. The UN emphasizes that these attacks are part of an ongoing assault on the presence and rights of Palestinians, and calls on the international community to take urgent action to protect these crops and farmers' rights.
