Israeli Colonizers Assault Palestinian Olive Harvesters in Burin
In a continuation of systematic violence targeting Palestinian agricultural life, illegal paramilitary Israeli colonizers—accompanied by an armed guard from the Yitzhar outpost—assaulted Palestinian civilians harvesting olives on Saturday in the lands between Burin and Huwarra, south of Nablus in the occupied West Bank’s northern part.
The attackers beat several harvesters, forced them off their land, and scattered the olives they had collected. Shortly after the attacks, Israeli soldiers and the paramilitary colonizers forced the Palestinians to leave their olive orchards.
On Friday, the colonizers invaded olive orchards in Burin, attacked Palestinian farmers and stole olive harvest.
