Jenin - Ma'an - The Israeli occupation forces bulldozed the lands of citizens from Barta'a, northwest of Jenin. Barta'a Mayor Ghassan Qabha said that the occupation bulldozers uprooted and razed approximately 20 dunums of citizens' land, in the area adjacent to the racist separation wall built on the town's lands. With the escalation of occupation measures and settler attacks, the Ministry of Agriculture expects that farmers will not be able to access 80,000 dunams of olive-planted land, which could result in the loss of about 15% of production (the productivity of the tree behind the apartheid wall is already weak because its owners are unable to serve it throughout the year).
