A number of "Israeli" settlers, including children, were caught on video tape harvesting Palestinian olive trees in the Tal Romedia neighborhood, in the southern West Bank city of al-Khalil ( Hebron).
After an argument with the residents, the settlers left the scene leaving several cut olive branches, and took what they harvested from the Palestinian olive trees.
Issa Amro, coordinator of the Youth Coalition reported that the attack is part of ongoing and escalating attacks carried out by the settlers, especially during the olive harvest season.
On Tuesday, a group of armed extremist settlers of the Aliyea illegal settlement cut at least 120 Olive trees that belong to residents of Qaryout village, south of the northern West Bank city of Nablus.
Moreover, Palestinian sources reported Wednesday that several extremist "Israeli" settlers uprooted around 300 olive trees that belong to residents of Al-Mogheer village, east of the central West Bank city of Ramallah.
The settlers carried their attack out during the early dawn hours, and fled the scene, local sources reported.
