Settlers uprooted and broke 258 olive saplings in the town of Kafr al-Dik, west of Salfit, owned by Tayseer Ali Ahmed.
Ahmed said that the settlers uprooted and broke olive saplings on his land known as "Deiryeh" located west of the town, adding that he has been working on reclaiming his land, which has an estimated area of 17 dunums, for the past 4 years, and planted it with about 450 saplings, whose age ranges between 5-10 years. .
He added that the financial cost of reclaiming his land amounted to about 70,000 shekels, and in a flash the settlers uprooted part of it, indicating that he will re-cultivate it again, and will not leave his land to them.
He explained that the settlers' attacks do not stop at uprooting the olive trees, but rather the water pipes that feed the trees, and the breaking of 7 trees owned by his brother Hassan.
The governor of Salfit, Abdullah Kamil, said that the uprooting of trees by settlers is part of the Israeli plans to seize Palestinian lands and build more settlements.
