Nablus:A Palestinian individual was injured and two others were arrested during attacks by the Israeli army and Israeli occupiers targeting olive pickers in the occupied West Bank on Friday.

According to Anadolu Agency – English, in the northern West Bank, a 36-year-old Palestinian suffered bruises and other injuries after being beaten by Israeli occupiers in the town of Burqa, northwest of Nablus. The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its teams treated the man after he fell from a height during the attack.

In Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, Israeli occupiers were reported to have attacked farmers who were harvesting olives, forcing them to discontinue their work and leave their fields. Similarly, in Al-Lubban Al-Sharqiya, south of Nablus, Israeli soldiers chased olive pickers, firing sound grenades and forcing more than 30 Palestinians to leave agricultural land near their homes.

Further incidents occurred in the Al-Masoudiya area northwest of Nablus, where Israeli occupiers broke into a house, damaged property, and cut power lines. In the Jenin governorate, equipment and personal items were stolen from a vehicle repair workshop, and damages were inflicted on three vehicles.

In the central West Bank, Kafr Malik, northeast of Ramallah, saw attacks on olive pickers and a foreign activist accompanying Palestinian farmers. Two Palestinians harvesting olives were arrested. Additionally, in Al-Mughayyir, northeast of Ramallah, Israeli occupiers allegedly opened fire towards Palestinian houses.

The Palestinian Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission documented 409 attacks on olive farmers and their properties from October 1 to October 21, with the majority attributed to Israeli occupiers and the rest to the Israeli army. These attacks have reportedly intensified across the West Bank, including East Jerusalem, since October 2023.
