Today, Wednesday, the Israeli army and settlers attacked Palestinian farmers and volunteers during their participation in olive picking in several areas of the occupied West Bank, resulting in injuries and cases of suffocation.
Eyewitnesses reported that the occupation forces fired tear gas canisters at participants in a 'volunteer day' in the town of Al-Nazla Al-Sharqiya, north of Tulkarem, causing dozens to suffer from suffocation.
The area where the assault took place is adjacent to a pastoral settlement outpost established by settlers on the town's land a few months ago.
The event was organized by the 'Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission' to support farmers in areas threatened by settlement expansion, with the participation of dozens of Palestinian and foreign volunteers.
The head of the commission, Muayad Shaaban, stated during his participation in the event that this year's olive season 'is considered one of the most dangerous seasons, amid escalating attacks by settlers supported by the Israeli army.'
Additionally, two Palestinians were injured this evening, one due to an assault by settlers east of Hebron, and the other after a settler deliberately hit a girl's vehicle north of Ramallah, as part of a series of ongoing assaults in the south and center of the West Bank.
The Palestinian Red Crescent Society reported that its crews transported a 41-year-old man to the hospital after he was beaten by settlers in the town of Bani Na'im east of Hebron while trying to reach his home near the entrance of the village of Beirin.
In eastern Bethlehem, the 'Bider Organization for the Defense of Bedouin Rights' reported that settlers gathered in large numbers near the village of Kisan and carried out provocative acts, including cutting down olive trees and damaging agricultural crops, according to eyewitnesses.
In northern Ramallah, the Wall and Settlement Resistance Commission announced that a girl was injured in her foot after a settler deliberately hit her vehicle at the entrance of the town of Attara.
In occupied Jerusalem, sources reported that settlers stormed the Bedouin gathering of 'Khalat Al-Sidra' east of the town of Mukhmas and released their livestock inside the citizens' homes.
Attacks by Israeli settlers increase annually with the start of the olive picking season, which is a primary source of livelihood for thousands of Palestinian families.
According to official Palestinian data, settlers carried out 7,154 attacks against Palestinians and their properties in the West Bank during the years of genocide, resulting in the martyrdom of 33 citizens and the displacement of 33 Bedouin gatherings.
Alongside the Israeli genocide in Gaza, the Israeli army and settlers in the West Bank killed at least 1,052 Palestinians and injured about 10,300 others, in addition to arresting more than 20,000, including 1,600 children.
This year's olive season is considered one of the most dangerous seasons, amid escalating attacks by settlers supported by the Israeli army.
