Israeli settlers Thursday cut down around 120 olive trees near the village of Yatma, south of Nablus, according to a local activist. Ghassan Daghlas, who monitors settlement activities in the north of the West Bank, said settlers from the nearby settlement of Kefar Tappuach cut 120 olives in private Palestinian land. Settler violence against Palestinians and property in the West Bank has been strongly condemned by several world governments and international agencies.
