Israeli settlers attacked Palestinians, activists, and journalists during an olive harvest in the occupied West Bank. This information was released by Reuters.
It is noted that among the injured were also two Reuters employees who were beaten with sticks and stones in the area of the Palestinian village of Beita. Such attacks have become more frequent during this year's olive harvest. The settlers, estimated to number in the dozens, ruthlessly attacked journalists and Palestinians, injuring several people.
"Get out of here," shouted the settlers during the attack
According to the UN, in October, Israeli settlers carried out at least 264 attacks on Palestinians in the West Bank. This is the highest number of incidents since 2006, when the UN began tracking such events.
A Ukrainian journalist recorded a flare-up of violence in the occupied Palestinian village, where Israeli settlers launched an attack on journalists and local residents who were quietly harvesting olives. These attacks have become a distressing confirmation of the escalating conflict in the West Bank, which threatens the safety of many people.
