Israeli Forces Restrict Palestinian Farmers' Access to Land
For the second consecutive week, Israeli troops have prevented Palestinian farmers from accessing their lands to harvest olives in the town of Kobar, northwest of Ramallah.
According to local sources, Israeli forces have continued to close the iron gate leading to the citizens' lands, blocking farmers from accessing their properties.
Additionally, elderly Fahd Abu al-Hajj was detained following a verbal altercation with soldiers.
Last week, occupation forces also prevented Palestinians from accessing their lands in Kobar and fired live ammunition towards them.
Olive pickers have faced increased attacks from colonists and occupation soldiers, who prevent them from harvesting olives and accessing their lands in several areas.
