Jenin:Colonists reportedly attacked Palestinian families from the town of Ya'bad, west of Jenin, on Friday during their olive harvesting activities, as reported by local sources.

According to Palestine news & Information Agency, the colonists assaulted the families, including brothers Wafiq and Muwafaq Houshiya, while they were working on their land. The attack occurred near Khirbet Srouj, west of the town.

The sources indicated that the colonists not only attacked the farmers but also stole quantities of harvested olives along with harvesting equipment and tools. Furthermore, it was confirmed that the colonists had established a colonial outpost in Khirbet Srouj after forcibly displacing its Palestinian residents in recent months. This is part of ongoing attacks aimed at preventing Palestinian farmers from accessing their land and harvesting olives.
