NABLUS: Colonists today uprooted 450 olive and almond saplings in the village of Deir Sharaf, west of Nablus.
Ghazi Antri, the landowner, said that he entered his land, located in proximity to Shafi Shomron colonial settlement bloc, but he was completely shocked to find out that colonists had uprooted about 450 olive and almond saplings from his ten-dunum of land.
Antri explained that he had been working on his land since the beginning of the aggression on the Gaza Strip, where he planted approximately 250 trees, in addition to 200 that were previously planted there.
The colonists took advantage of the drop of temperatures during the last three days to destroy and damage his saplings, Antri added.
He pointed out that this is the fourth time that the colonists have uprooted trees in his land during the last two years, as they destroyed 99, 102, and 200 trees the past three times.
