“This means no oil, soap and multiple other products, or revenue from their sale, and disruption of a profoundly important time for the nearly 3 million Palestinians on the West Bank.
Riham Jafari, who lives in Bethlehem and works for ActionAid Palestine, says the olive harvest season is traditionally “a special and joyful time for Palestinians, when families and friends gather to pick their olives, sing and share food”.
Olives are the largest single agricultural product on the West Bank, and would have earned farmers $70m in total this year, says Abbas Milhem, of the Palestinian Farmers’ Union (PFU).
With 110,000 farmers directly profiting from the olive harvest and another 50,000 people earning much of their livelihood from working with the trees and produce, the impact is enormous. Between a quarter and a third of the Palestinian population of the West Bank is affected.”

“Residents of a town in the West Bank where a man died during a raid by Israeli settlers said on Sunday the incursions had become more brazen since the start of the war with Gaza and troops were standing by and letting the raids go on.
The comments came a day after residents said settlers raided two Palestinian communities in the north of the occupied West Bank, burning cars and clashing with residents who came out to confront them.
“They besieged the houses, burned the cars, pushed the car down a hill and burned it, and the soldier stood there and did not say a thing,” said Mustafa Mohammad, a resident of Qarawat Bani Hassan, where a 38 year-old man was shot dead.
The Israeli military said soldiers had arrived at the scene and used riot dispersal means and live fire to break up the confrontation between residents and settlers.”
