RAMALLAH, October 25, 2025 (WAFA) – Three Palestinian farmers were injured on Saturday after being brutally attacked by Israeli colonists in the village of Deir Nizam, northwest of Ramallah, while another was arrested by Israeli forces.
Activist Mujahid al-Tamimi reported that dozens of colonists physically assaulted farmers while they were picking olives near the western entrance to the town, beating them with rifle butts. The attack left three farmers with multiple injuries, and they were forced to leave their lands.
Al-Tamimi affirmed that the Israeli army later raided the town to provide protection for the colonists and arrested 31-year-old Moatasem Abdullah al-Tamimi.
Earlier today, colonists injured several farmers by spraying them with pepper gas in the village of Kafr Malik, east of Ramallah. Meanwhile, for the second week in a row, Israeli forces have been preventing farmers from accessing their lands northwest of Ramallah.
According to the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, its crews have documented a total of 158 attacks against olive pickers since the beginning of the current season, 17 carried out by Israeli army and 141 by colonists.
