RAMALLAH, November 10, 2026 (WAFA) – On Tuesday morning, Israeli colonists—protected by occupation forces—attacked olive harvesters in the village of Deir Abu Mash'al, west of Ramallah. The colonists smashed the windows of two vehicles, while occupation soldiers fired tear gas canisters at the residents and prevented them from reaching their agricultural lands.

Local sources reported that a group of colonists, under the protection of occupation soldiers, assaulted olive harvesters on lands located on the outskirts of the village. They shattered the windows of two vehicles, while the soldiers fired tear gas toward the residents.

The sources added that the occupation soldiers fired tear gas canisters at the citizens, blocking them from accessing their farmland to continue the olive harvest.

In a related context, the Colonization and Wall Resistance Commission documented 674 attacks carried out by Israeli occupation forces and colonists against olive trees and farmers in the West Bank—including occupied Jerusalem—over a 37-day period, from October 1 to November 6.

The Commission stated that 520 of these attacks were perpetrated by colonists, while 154 were carried out by the occupation army. It noted that the Ramallah and al-Bireh Governorate recorded 130 attacks, ranking second after the Nablus Governorate, which recorded 230 attacks. The attacks included assaulting olive harvesters, preventing them from reaching their land, firing live ammunition and tear gas canisters at them, stealing crops and agricultural equipment, damaging or uprooting trees, and setting fire to land and agricultural property.
