Mechanisms belonging to the Israeli occupation authorities on Monday uprooted 320 olive trees during demolition and bulldozing of Palestinian land in the town of Tarqumiya, west of Hebron (south of occupied Jerusalem).

According to the farmer Ali Fetafita, the occupation mechanisms washed away agricultural land in the area of "Hamarah" in the town of Tarqumiya, belonging to citizens of the town and the nearby town of Beit Ankle.

In a press statement, Fatafita said that the dredging lasted 14 dunums, including the demolition of agricultural wells and stone walls, the levelling of land and the uprooting of dozens of olive trees.
