Settlers today cut 50 olive trees in Al-Sawiya village, south of Nablus.

Ghassan Douglas, an official of the settlement file in the northern West Bank, said that the Rahalim settlers located on the lands of the villages of Al-Sawiya and Wattama, south of Nablus, cut this number of trees in the Al-Wadi region, owned by Hamad Mahmoud Hakima.

Douglas stressed that the settlers cut and destroyed about 750 olive trees, and the occupation also deprived the villagers of harvesting the fruits of more than 2000 trees during 2019.
