UN experts warn of rising West Bank attacks
Seven independent experts affiliated with the United Nations warned of increasing risks facing Palestinian farmers in the West Bank during the olive harvest season, due to escalating settler attacks and imposed restrictions. The report indicated that occupation authorities have issued orders to remove vegetation covering approximately 339,000 square meters, and more than 6,000 olive trees have been vandalized, the highest rate in six years. The experts emphasized that the olive season is a vital source of income and food security for Palestinian families and is deeply embedded in their cultural traditions. They warned that ongoing violence and restrictions hinder farmers' access to their lands and called on the international community to exert pressure to protect Palestinian rights and hold accountable those responsible for violations.
