Al Jazeera: Israeli settlers and soldiers continue to attack Palestinian olive farmers, with a significant reduction in this year's harvest expected.
Israeli settlers have continued to attack Palestinian farmers in the occupied West Bank, while Israeli soldiers have prevented farmers from accessing their fields, according to Al Jazeera. These incidents have been concentrated in the provinces of Jenin, Ramallah, and Nablus since the start of the olive harvest season. The olive industry is crucial for Palestine, supporting approximately 100,000 families and generating $150 million to $180 million in annual harvest season income. However, due to attacks by settlers and the Israeli army, this year's olive yield is expected to be significantly lower than the average of 22,000 tons per season over the past decade, with many farmers forced to harvest early, resulting in an anticipated 50% loss in olive oil production.
