OCCUPIED JERUSALEM, (Palestine Foundation Information Center), A horde of extremist Jewish settlers wreaked havoc on dozens of olive trees in the Palestinian town of Mikhmas, northeast of Occupied Jerusalem.
In a statement, the Jerusalem Governorate said that settlers stormed on Sunday the Al‑Hay area of Mikhmas and cut down about 40 olive trees in a grove belonging to Asaad Kan’an.
The Governorate described the settler attack on the grove as “part of ongoing crimes against Palestinian citizens and their lands.”
In a recent report, the Palestinian agriculture ministry said that the Israeli occupation authority uprooted approximately 1,608 olive trees in various areas of the West Bank during the period between December 4 and 11.
