zionist Settlers set ablaze dozens of Olive trees near Ramallah

A group of zionist settlers set fire to a large number of olive trees owned by the villagers of Deir Nitham near Ramallah.

Witnesses reported that most of the burnt olive trees are owned by Ahmad Mizher, and that theses trees have been planted since the Roman era.

Wittiness added that the settlere came from the illegal settlement of Halamish, constructed on lands that belong to villagers from Nabi Saleh and Deir Nitham, west of the central West Bank city of Ramallah.

The villagers stated that this is not the first time zionist settlers attack and destroy their orhcards since the begging of the Intifada and that large areas of lands were destroyed.
