UN urges Israel to safeguard West Bank farmers
The United Nations experts have concluded that the escalation of settler attacks on Palestinian farmers in the West Bank, especially during the olive harvest season, is causing the destruction of hundreds of trees and restricting their access to their lands. In 2025, the UN documented 178 incidents of assault against Palestinians during the harvest period, including the destruction of over 6,000 trees—the highest in six years. The experts emphasized the necessity of protecting farmers and reaffirming Israel's commitment to international law, warning that continued violence threatens Palestinian food security and economic sovereignty.
