SALFIT, Friday, October 20, 2023 (WAFA) – Army-backed colonial Israeli settlers this morning prevented local Palestinian residents in the town of Kafr ad-Dik, in the occupied West Bank province of Salfit, from accessing their lands and harvesting olives there, according to local sources.

The sources reported that colonial settlers, residing in the illegal settlement of Brukhin, obstructed Palestinian landowners in the vicinity, preventing them from harvesting their olive crops and forcing them to leave.

This kind of disruption has detrimental effects on the livelihoods of Palestinian families who rely on the olive harvest season for their income. The situation raises concerns about the safety and security of Palestinian farmers during the harvest season.
