Settlers burn olive fields in Nablus, occupation army demolishes two facilities in Jerusalem

On Sunday, Israeli settlers burned Palestinian olive fields in the Nablus Governorate in the northern West Bank. The Israeli occupation army demolished an industrial facility in the same governorate, in addition to demolishing two commercial facilities, and bulldozed land belonging to Palestinians in the town of Beit Hanina, north of occupied Jerusalem.

The Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission (a Palestinian governmental body) said in a statement that "settlers set fire to olive fields in the town of Madama, south of Nablus." An eyewitness told Anadolu Agency that the settlers "deliberately burned dozens of dunams of land planted with olive trees before the fire was controlled" by the villagers.

He explained that the targeted lands are located north of the town, along a road used by settlers, "who threw flammable materials along the road, before the fire spread to large areas of Palestinian olive groves."

Also in Nablus, the Wall Resistance Commission reported that the Israeli occupation army demolished an industrial facility under construction near the village of Deir Sharaf, west of the city, without providing further details. On Sunday, the occupation army demolished two commercial facilities and bulldozed land belonging to Palestinians in the town of Beit Hanina, north of occupied Jerusalem.
