Israeli olive grove attack before harvest
The Israeli occupation's bulldozing of Palestinian olive trees before the harvest season causes grief and economic losses for farmers in the West Bank. Olive trees are considered a symbol of the land, and the sector accounts for about 8% of the gross domestic product, providing over 60,000 jobs. This occurs alongside security justifications from the army and efforts to prevent threats, but human rights organizations criticize these actions as direct destruction of farmers' livelihoods and their connection to their lands, especially amid rising attacks from settlers. Farmers expect that this year's harvest season will witness unprecedented fluctuations due to these violations.
