SALFIT, Sunday, February 07, 2021 (WAFA) – Israeli settlers today evening uprooted around 30 olive trees belonging to Palestinian residents in the town of Kafr ad-Dik, to the west of the occupied West Bank city of Salfit, local sources said.
Sources told WAFA that settlers uprooted 30 olive trees in an area adjacent to the Israeli settlement of Bruchin, built illegally on Palestinian land in the towns of Kafr ad-Dik and Bruqin in 1999.
The Governor of Salfit, Abdullah Kmail, condemned the continuous “organized terrorism” perpetrated by settlers against Palestinian residents and their properties in Salfit, calling on residents to confront settlers and remain steadfast on their land.
Earlier today, settlers uprooted around 30 olive saplings, stole farming equipment, and removed a barbed-wire fence in the village of Bruqin, near Salfit.
