SALFIT, Thursday, November 26, 2020 (WAFA) – Israeli settlers today uprooted and cut dozens of olive trees in Bruqin village, west of the northern West Bank city of Salfit, according to local sources.

They told WAFA that settlers from the illegal settlement of Brukhin, built on expropriated Bruqin land, sneaked into the village land, uprooted some trees and cut almost 45 others.

The targeted area is located near the settlement and settlers often sneak into the Palestinian-owned farms where they destroy and vandalize trees, say residents.
