NABLUS, August 25, 2025 (WAFA) – Israeli occupation bulldozers demolished a sheep barn and an agricultural room in the town of Burqa, northwest of Nablus, according to local sources.

They said that Israeli troops raided the western area of ​​Burqa, where heavy machinery bulldozers began demolishing a sheep barn and an agricultural room, uprooting several trees owned by local resident Hussam Saif.

Over the past few months, Israeli occupation forces have escalated their demolition of residents' homes, vandalized their property, and uprooted thousands of olive trees.

According to the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, Israeli occupation authorities carried out 75 demolitions in July, affecting 122 structures, including 60 inhabited homes, 11 uninhabited ones, 22 agricultural facilities, and 26 livelihood facilities.

Meanwhile, colonists carried out 232 acts of vandalism and theft during the same month, affecting vast areas of land, and resulting in the uprooting, destruction, and poisoning of 2,844 trees, including 2,647 olive trees.
