A group of illegal Israeli colonizers attacked, Tuesday, many Palestinians while picking their olive trees in their orchards, west of Nahhalin town, west of Bethlehem in the occupied West Bank.
Hasan Breijiyya, the head of the Bethlehem office of the Wall & Colonization Resistance Commission, stated that the colonizers came from Daniel illegal colony, which was built on stolen Palestinian lands.
Breijiyya added that the colonizers assaulted Ayed Abdul-Aziz and his family while picking their trees in their olive orchards in the Banias area, in the western part of the village.
The Palestinians managed to repel the attack and forced the colonizers to leave the orchards and return to their colony.
On Monday, Israeli colonizers cut dozens of Palestinian olive trees and stole harvesting equipment in Nablus, in northern West Bank.
It is worth mentioning that the past week witnessed a serious escalation in similar violations in various parts of the West Bank, including attacking the villages, cutting and uprooting trees, harvesting and stealing the produce, especially in various villages and towns in the southern areas of Nablus governorate.
While the assaults and violations by the illegal colonizers against the Palestinians and their property are ongoing, they witness a sharp escalation during the olive harvest season.
