Colonists attack Palestinian olive pickers in Nablus, steal equipment and harvest

NABLUS, November 15, 2026 (WAFA) - Israeli colonists attacked Palestinian farmers in the town of Beit Dajan, east of Nablus, on Sunday morning, preventing them from harvesting olives and stealing their equipment and quantities of the collected crop.

Local sources said a group of colonists stormed the eastern area of the town and assaulted farmers while they were working on their land. They prevented them from continuing the olive harvest before seizing their equipment and the olives they had collected.

The area has been subjected to repeated, almost daily colonist attacks targeting farmers during the olive harvest season, restricting their access to their lands and preventing them from cultivating them.

Colonist attacks during the olive harvest season extend beyond targeting farmers and preventing them from collecting their crops to include uprooting centuries-old trees, bulldozing farmland, and destroying irrigation facilities and agricultural infrastructure, undermining the foundations of Palestinian agricultural activity.

According to the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission, Israeli occupation forces and colonists have carried out 62,916 attacks against Palestinians, their lands and property across the occupied West Bank, including East Jerusalem, since October 7, 2023.
