Few years ago, we planted the area with olive trees, and we’ve been talking care of it in a regular basis. but after the establishment of the outpost, we are constantly targeted by colonists’ attacks. At the early morning of Thursday, the occupation forces sprayed poisonous chemicals on olive saplings which killed about 65 trees , we informed the Department of the Ministry of Agriculture in Ramallah and Al-Bireh, we also filed a complaint to the Israeli police , but they did not open a serious investigation.”

This attack is the second on its type since the beginning of this year and at the hand of the same group of colonists, at the beginning January a group of colonists sneaked to an outpost newly built on confiscated lands from Sinjil – Nearby Rumana area northeast the town, they also sprayed chemicals on a 3 dunums plot, the chemicals poisoned the following: 100 olive trees aging 4 years, 50 almond , pomegranate and figs that belong to farmer ‘Ayed Al-Ghafri (52) from Sinjil town.
