JENIN, August 5, 2026 (WAFA) — Israeli occupation forces today began bulldozing Palestinian land and uprooting olive trees in the town of Ajja, south of Jenin.
Local sources told WAFA that Israeli forces, accompanied by military reinforcements, stormed agricultural lands at the entrance of the town and began bulldozing land and uprooting dozens of mature olive trees.
The sources said the bulldozing operations come ten days after Israeli authorities issued a military order requiring the removal of olive trees and plants from lands belonging to the towns of Jaba’ and Ajja, south of Jenin, covering an area of 32.941 dunams.
The latest actions come amid escalating Israeli measures in the Jenin governorate, including the bulldozing of agricultural lands, the seizure of large areas under military orders, and continued raids and arrests in several towns and villages across the governorate, as part of a policy aimed at restricting residents and strengthening control over the land.
