Colonizers cut down more than 300 ancient olive and almond trees in Sa'ir, northeast of Hebron.

Today, Wednesday, colonists cut down more than 200 ancient olive trees and over 100 fruit-bearing almond trees in the town of Sa'ir, northeast of Hebron.

Citizen Issa Muhammad Shalaldeh reported that groups from the "Asfar" and "Kedumim" settlements, established on the town's land, used electric saws to cut and chop the trees in the "Um al-Batam" area of Wadi Sa'ir, completely destroying them.

The trees belong to him and his brother Izzat. It is worth mentioning that colonists from the same settlements burned dozens of dunams planted with grapes, olives, and almonds last month, as part of a series of ongoing assaults aimed at displacing residents from their lands in favor of colonial expansion.
