00:00:00Our people in East Jerusalem and the West and the hill thugs Bank and Gaza who are leading this systematic colonial plan to prevent access to prevent farmers from accessing their lands and attempting to empty the land of its inhabitants and benefit from the bounties of this country. Therefore, it is an attempt to empty the land and an attempt to control it. Of course, this is a clear Israeli political goal because it has been systematic over the years, but the pace has increased significantly in the previous season and this season, specifically if we talk about from 250 until this date, 120, approximately about 5,000 trees and 415, 5,415 trees have been uprooted, violated, cut, or broken, in addition to hundreds of dunams that we have not yet been able to accurately count due to the spread of settlers and the prevention of farmers from accessing their lands. However, those documented in the field are communicating with farmers and local councils to accurately identify the affected areas, but the hotspots or hot spots that farmers cannot access have been identified. Accordingly, the Ministry of Agriculture has prepared or launched the olive harvest campaign 2026. This campaign consists of all segments of Palestinian society, both governmental and non- governmental institutions, and there are also human rights organizations, international and non- international organizations, universities, and everyone who can provide voluntary assistance, as well as active national institutions working side by side in establishing operations rooms in every governorate of the country. This governorate will be headed by the governor and the Director General of the Directorate of Agriculture will supervise the implementation of this campaign and on the occasion of farmers registering to access their land collectively so that the settler cannot isolate the farmers when they access their lands. Yes, your estimates, Engineer Iman, regarding the quantities of olives being stolen or the value of the financial losses resulting from these attacks so far. I mean, when we talk about around 5,000 trees, approximately 3.5 million dollars that were recorded in the damage assessment system and were considered to be cut trees. But as for the completeness, there is the issue of fruit theft. Fruit theft is about approximately no less than approximately 14 tons, 4 tons, meaning 4 grams, meaning approximately 15,000 dollars as well from the value of the fruit theft, not to mention, of course, the assessment of the lands that we haven't reached yet, which is also يعني I mean, perhaps we expect there will be an assessment, according to the assessment of the fruits, that we will have 21 tons of oil this year, and 16 tons will be 16,000 tons will be for local consumption. However, due to colonialism, due to the settlers and their defeat, God willing, we will reach the quantity of oil that will cover local consumption. In the previous year, you saw that there was a large shortage of oil and farmers' inability to access their lands, despite the campaigns that were launched, but the olive harvest was very light last year, and it coincided with the settlers' campaign against the olive harvest. Therefore, it was a weak season and a devastating loss for the farmer. However, this season, we hope that despite what the Palestinian farmer is exposed to from cruelty and violence from the settlers, he is determined to pass this season and reach his land because he considers it and is rooted in it. It is Palestinian identity. The Palestinian farmer and the entire Palestinian family look forward to this season with patience in order to fulfill some of the responsibilities that fall on the families. Therefore, it is an integral part of their identity, their economy, and their daily life, and the settlers cannot be allowed to There is a strong will from the farmers to access their land and to complete this season successfully, God willing. God willing. The governorates and regions most affected by settler attacks and olive fruit theft. And yes, this week it was clear in the Bil'in area, which is one of the most affected areas, in addition to, of course, two isolated areas where trees were uprooted by the Israeli army, which uprooted these trees in order to prepare a suitable environment for the settlers to establish settlements in the Jenin areas, which were known to have a fixed settler presence, and now the lands have been completely emptied in order to spread settlers over large areas in order to control Palestinian land. Therefore, the last period was the target of extensive targeting, especially since it is an olive-growing area, and it was targeted extensively until the value of the olive trees and the quantity of olives exceeded 2,300 trees this week that were cut. And of course, olives are perennial, and we are talking about the economic impact that these perennial olive trees need tens of years to restart the production process, and they know that when they cut down a perennial olive tree, that means it needs Of course, it must be replanted in its place. It must be that we plant ten trees in its place. Thank you very much, agricultural engineer Iman Jarrar, Director General of Farmer Services in the Ministry of Agriculture.

00:04:01and official and honorary figures.
00:04:05The Prime
00:04:07who are prevented from accessing Minister said during the inauguration that this project is important
00:04:11and their freedom of movement, for farmers, traders, and residents, and contributes to
00:04:14regulating the market and agricultural products,
00:04:17improving their access to markets, and opening wider
00:04:21economic opportunities for farmers and producers. He
00:04:25added that the opening of the market comes at
00:04:28a time when our people are facing
00:04:31the terror of settlers sector specifically, and their continuous attacks on agricultural
00:04:35lands and farmers and their livelihoods
00:04:38in an attempt
00:04:40of its investments in to impose a reality that forces citizens by force
00:04:43to stay away from
00:04:45their lands.
00:04:52of its holdings in And with us from Tulkarm is our correspondent Ihab Al-Damiri.
00:04:55Welcome to you, Ihab. So, the opening of this
00:04:59market comes.
00:05:02And the occupation soldiers, how do the citizens
00:05:06of Tulkarm adapt to all these
00:05:08events?
00:05:13Yes, Areen, greetings to you and to the esteemed viewers. Indeed, Areen,
00:05:17today Tulkarm witnessed two
00:05:20important events,
00:05:22which are related, firstly, to the wholesale market
00:05:26for vegetables and fruits. This market was originally existing
00:05:30before, but it was in need of a development
00:05:32project, a project that would practically move
00:05:36the commercial and economic activity and make
00:05:39it a destination for farmers, traders, and all
00:05:42our people. And this is what the international partner
00:05:46bodies, specifically a number of European Union countries
00:05:49through the FAO organization, did when they provided support to Tulkarm
00:05:53Municipality to rehabilitate this market. This rehabilitation and
00:05:56reclamation and practical development
00:05:59included the market squares, which became wider
00:06:03and more capable of
00:06:07to huge refrigerators to contain all types
00:06:10of fruits and vegetables. But the important thing today in this matter is that His
00:06:14Excellency Prime Minister Muhammad
00:06:18opened this market, he came with a clear message that the government, with all its
00:06:21international partners and all sectors, is working to improve
00:06:24the reality of our people and protect agriculture
00:06:27and land through innovative projects,
00:06:31more creative projects in order to practically
00:06:34provide goods and vegetables and fruits, and also
00:06:38to facilitate their access, transportation, and movement between
00:06:40wholesale markets, retail markets, and even to
00:06:44various stores. Therefore, today, His Excellency Prime Minister
00:06:47Muhammad Mustafa was keen to emphasize that the government spared no effort
00:06:51to support farmers in light of the terrorism practiced by
00:06:55settlers and occupation soldiers against our people, especially during the olive
00:06:58harvest season. Indeed, as you mentioned, Areen, Tulkarm is suffering
00:07:02terribly as a result of the continuous aggression of the occupation,
00:07:05the continuous forced displacement under the threat of arms from the Tulkarm
00:07:09and Nur Shams camps and their surroundings, and the hardships it suffers
00:07:11from the occupation's restrictions and the continuous movement of occupation
00:07:15vehicles. Therefore, today, when we see that Prime Minister
00:07:18Muhammad Mustafa himself came
00:07:22market, and all the international partners and all the important
00:07:25sectors, it is a clear message that Tulkarm, which is subjected
00:07:28to aggression, receives attention and appreciation from
00:07:32the government and all official bodies, and work
00:07:35is underway to consolidate and strengthen the steadfastness of our people. Therefore, in
00:07:39light of all these obstacles and in light of what our people are subjected to, a war from
00:07:43the occupation that has not stopped since the beginning of
00:07:462025 until this moment, the government
00:07:50today confirms again and repeatedly that it is doing what
00:07:54is necessary and everything that is needed to strengthen our people
00:07:57and enhance their steadfastness, and also to strengthen the most important sector for Tulkarm as an agricultural
00:08:01governorate, which is the agricultural sector. Not only that,
00:08:05but Prime Minister Muhammad Mustafa's tour
00:08:08continued towards the fourth Tulkarm
00:08:10National Industries Exhibition. This exhibition
00:08:14actually represents a commercial boost for our people here
00:08:18and for national companies in general, whether from Tulkarm or even from
00:08:21outside Tulkarm. It is held at Khadouri University, Palestine Technical
00:08:25University. Today, His Excellency Prime Minister also opened this exhibition and emphasized
00:08:29the importance of these exhibitions for Tulkarm and emphasized that Tulkarm,
00:08:33despite the bleeding wound, is rebuilding and working
00:08:36to restore life and inject commercial activity into
00:08:40it, especially since Tulkarm, to be honest, has suffered
00:08:44a huge economic and commercial decline over the past years.
00:08:47And today, the importance of these exhibitions, like the fourth
00:08:50Tulkarm National Industries Exhibition, lies in what
00:08:53it will practically achieve in active commercial and economic
00:08:56movement between traders, citizens, consumers,
00:09:00and sellers, and between those coming from outside Tulkarm
00:09:03Governorate, specifically from the governorates of the homeland, and from inside the Green Line,
00:09:08exhibition, which truly represents great importance for the people.
00:09:20This is to strengthen the steadfastness of our people in the face of continuous
00:09:24aggression. Ihab Al-Damiri from Tulkarm, you
00:09:27were with us and gave us the latest picture
00:09:30you have about the attacks of settlers and occupation
00:09:34soldiers. Thank you very much for all these clarifications.

00:10:39This
00:10:45morning, dozens of settlers stormed the blessed
00:10:49Al-Aqsa Mosque under the protection of the Israeli occupation
00:10:52forces. Local sources reported that dozens of settlers
00:10:56stormed the courtyards of the Al-Aqsa Mosque from the side of
00:11:00Bab al-Maghariba and performed Talmudic rituals
00:11:04in front of the
00:11:05Dome of the Rock.
00:11:10This morning, Israeli occupation forces raided
00:11:13a number of governorates and launched a campaign of arrests
00:11:17and Israeli raids targeting
00:11:19dozens of citizens, including released prisoners
00:11:22and five members of one family, amid
00:11:26raids on homes, the firing of gas bombs,
00:11:30and clashes in a number of areas.
00:11:34Our correspondents in Nablus reported that
00:11:38occupation forces arrested a young man after raiding
00:11:41the city and storming a number of homes. They also raided
00:11:44the village of Al-Badhan, north of the city,
00:11:47and stormed one of the homes, while they raided the
00:11:51popular housing neighborhood east of Nablus. In

00:12:07They also arrested two young men during a raid on the village of Zababdeh,
00:12:10west of Jenin. As for the city
00:12:14of Qalqilya, occupation forces arrested four released
00:12:17prisoners during a raid on the city, while these
00:12:21forces arrested citizens from the town of Qatanna and
00:12:25another from the town of Al-Eizariya. In Hebron
00:12:28governorate, occupation forces arrested a released
00:12:30prisoner after stopping him at a military checkpoint at
00:12:34the entrance to Al-Aroub refugee camp. They also arrested
00:12:38a young man after raiding his home
00:12:41in the town of Deir Samet, north
00:12:44of the city.
00:12:51A young man was injured and bruised after being attacked
00:12:54by settlers while picking olives in the town
00:12:58of Turmusayya, north of Ramallah. He was transferred to
00:13:01the hospital for treatment. Meanwhile, Israeli
00:13:04occupation forces prevented farmers from entering
00:13:08their lands in the town of Turmusayya, north of Ramallah,
00:13:11this morning to pick olives,
00:13:14and forced them to
00:13:15leave.
00:13:21Settlers attacked farmers in the town of
00:13:25Yasuf, east of Salfit, and expelled them from their land and stole
00:13:29olive harvests and harvesting equipment. The
00:13:32head of the village council in Yasuf, Jum’a Abdel Fattah, said
00:13:36farmers while they were on their land
00:13:40in the Al-Khalla area and forced
00:13:43them to leave and stole the olive
00:13:46harvests and harvesting equipment belonging to farmer Ma’moun
00:13:50Ma’rouf Issa, which caused him material
00:13:53losses. Settlers also set up a tent
00:13:58the western area located between the villages of Sakaka
00:14:02and Marda, northeast of
00:14:04Salfit.
00:14:11The attacks by settlers and occupation forces on
00:14:14olive pickers in Nablus Governorate
00:14:18have increased, preventing them from accessing
00:14:23agricultural land.
00:14:26From Awarta to Huwara, south of Nablus, the location differs,
00:14:29but the suffering of farmers
00:14:32agricultural lands to harvest olives does not. And if
00:14:36they manage to reach them, they are beaten and shot at by occupation
00:14:40soldiers and settlers, so much so that the season of plenty has become filled
00:14:43with blood and terror, and the accusation has become reaching
00:14:46the olive trees of ancestors.
00:14:50Nobody will tell me that I produce 90 tins
00:14:53of olive oil, but this year I haven't even produced ten because it's forbidden, it's forbidden.
00:14:57I mean, we have tons of olive oil because Huwara
00:15:00is the food basket of Huwara in terms of olive oil,
00:15:04because all of it is planted. The entire area, almost 2,000 dunams, extends
00:15:07from the junction of Burin to almost
00:15:11Ein Abous. All of it has always been planted with olive trees. But
00:15:15today, if you look up at the areas below the settlement, you'll find that
00:15:18it's been cut. burned.
00:15:21One martyr and dozens of injuries since the beginning of the olive harvest season in
00:15:25Nablus Governorate, where reaching agricultural lands has become
00:15:28a dangerous journey in which farmers may
00:15:31return carried on shoulders rather than laden
00:15:34with the bounty of their olive trees. He comes
00:15:38at me from the mountain, chasing the young men picking olives, I mean the extremists.
00:15:41He comes all the way to my house here. I have been living here for seven years.
00:15:45I am the most frequent one here. He starts banging on my door as if I am in the olive groves
00:15:48there. He tells me to get down from here. I tell him why should I get down? I am in Area B.
00:15:52I am here under Area B, and Area B is my property line. He threatened
00:15:56me two days ago, he raised his weapon at me, put it to my chest and told me to leave
00:16:00or he would shoot me. I am not allowed to pick a single
00:16:02olive. Settler terrorism is escalating significantly
00:16:06against olive pickers, in addition to large areas where
00:16:10farmers are prevented from accessing them, while the olives
00:16:13and their bounty are stolen by extremists who
00:16:17and never-ending threat. Muhammad Al-Khatib,
00:16:21Palestine TV, Nablus. We remain in Nablus, where
00:16:25Israeli occupation bulldozers uprooted today more than
00:16:28200 ancient olive trees in the village of Al-Lubban
00:16:32Al-Sharqiya, south of the city. Our correspondents reported
00:16:36that occupation bulldozers stormed the Al-Sour
00:16:39area, east of the village, and arrested more than
00:16:42200, or uprooted more than 200
00:16:45fruitful olive trees before their
00:16:48owners could harvest their fruits,
00:16:52depriving them of their harvest season. He added that occupation
00:16:56forces closed the main entrance to the village, which prompted
00:16:59citizens to take alternative routes
00:17:02to reach
00:17:04it.
00:17:09Settlers today cut off electricity to the Al-Masoudiya
00:17:12area, which belongs to the lands of Burqa, northwest of Nablus.
00:17:16The official responsible for defending the lands
00:17:19of Al-Masoudiya, Diab Haji, reported that
00:17:22settlers cut off electricity to the area
00:17:25for the fifth time in more than two months
00:17:31citizens. He stated that
00:17:33the area is systematically subjected to attacks by settlers, which
00:17:37escalated after the establishment of a settlement outpost
00:17:42area.
00:17:48In Hebron, armed settlers today,
00:17:51for the sixth consecutive time, cut
00:17:54the electricity lines supplying a number of citizens'
00:17:58homes in Wadi Al-Awar, east of
00:18:00the city. The head of the Birin village council,
00:18:04Farid Burqan, said that a group of settlers from
00:18:07the Adorim settlement outpost, which was recently
00:18:11established on citizens' lands in that
00:18:13area, cut the electricity
00:18:16approximately 20 homes in
00:18:19the Wadi Al-Awar area, which belongs
00:18:22to Birin, east of Hebron. The
00:18:26residents of that area are continuously subjected
00:18:29to attacks by settlers and occupation
00:18:33forces, including demolition operations
00:18:36of homes and the bulldozing of their
00:18:39lands, besieging them and imposing
00:18:42strict restrictions on their movement
00:18:45to pressure them
00:18:48leave that
00:18:50area.
00:18:56In addition, settlers today erected shelters
00:18:59and raised occupation flags in the Tubas Plain.
00:19:03Local sources reported that settlers, under the protection
00:19:07of the occupation army, erected shelters
00:19:09and raised occupation flags in the Ainoun
00:19:13area in the Tubas Plain, amid
00:19:15fears that this may be the nucleus of a new

00:19:27In Lebanon, Israeli aggression continues in the south
00:19:30with ongoing raids and shelling and casualties
00:19:34from war remnants, amidst warnings of dangers
00:19:37threatening the lives of citizens. The Israeli
00:19:41escalation in southern Lebanon continues with recorded raids, artillery
00:19:45shelling, and ongoing casualties from the explosion of suspicious
00:19:48objects from war remnants. In the latest developments,
00:19:52an Israeli drone carried out a raid with a guided missile
00:19:55on the town of Kafr Kila in the Nabatieh district, while artillery
00:19:58shelling targeted the town of Mansoura and the vicinity of Yater and the
00:20:01adjacent valleys of Beit Lief and Sarbin. It was also reported
00:20:04that machine gun bursts were fired towards Kafr Kila and an interceptor
00:20:08missile exploded over the town of Khiam. In the series of
00:20:11aggression remnants, an officer of the Internal Security Forces
00:20:15in Ain Ebel was martyred after the explosion of a suspicious object while
00:20:19he was working in an agricultural field on the outskirts of the town.
00:20:22This comes after the martyrdom of a retired Lebanese army soldier
00:20:26in Yater after the occupation fired at him while he was inspecting
00:20:29his land, while the explosion of a suspicious object in Frun led to
00:20:33the martyrdom of one citizen and the injury of another. In this context, warnings were renewed
00:20:38against entering olive groves in Frun before consulting the competent authorities,
00:20:42for fear of cluster bombs and mines. The security situation,
00:20:46especially in the south, was discussed by President Joseph Aoun with Army Commander
00:20:50Rudolf Hikel, who briefed him on the results of his visit to Cyprus. As
00:20:53for Brussels, the foreign ministers of the European
00:20:56Union are holding a meeting today to approve the establishment of a European
00:21:00security and military mission to Lebanon, whose mission is to provide
00:21:03training and expertise to the Lebanese army and Lebanese security forces,
00:21:07without replacing UNIFIL forces, amidst European
00:21:10affirmation of support for extending the mandate of the United Nations Interim
00:21:13Force in southern Lebanon as its mission approaches
00:21:16its end at the end of this year, amid escalating
00:21:20tensions with Israel. The fate of the expected military negotiations
00:21:24round in Florida on October 20th remains undecided,
00:21:28given the absence of final confirmation regarding its holding, with
00:21:31any progress before the Israeli elections on the 27th of
00:21:34this month being ruled out. In a separate internal
00:21:38security matter, attention is turning to the investigations into the
00:21:41truck that was stopped in the Dahr al-Baydar area, heading
00:21:45from the Bekaa to the greater Beirut area, carrying hundreds
00:21:48of kilograms of explosives. Prime Minister Nawaf Salam praised
00:21:52the security forces that stopped the truck, seized its cargo,
00:21:55and referred its drivers to the competent authorities for investigation.
00:21:59While Salam noted that C4 was used in a number of infamous
00:22:02political assassinations in modern Lebanese history,
00:22:06he confirmed that the government would not be lenient in following
00:22:09up the investigation and expanding
00:22:13all those involved in this criminal operation and those
00:22:15behind them, and to uncover their plans
00:22:19and objectives, and refer them all to
00:22:22justice to receive the punishment they deserve,
00:22:25stressing that his government would deal with the necessary
00:22:28firmness with any weapon outside the framework
00:22:31of legality, whether in possession, transfer, or use.
00:22:35Thus, the challenge facing the Lebanese state remains twofold: confronting
00:22:38the Israeli occupation's attacks and confronting
00:22:42those who tamper with the country's security and stability, while
00:22:45the country faces open risks to all
00:22:48possibilities. For Palestine TV, Hala Salameh,

00:22:54With the ongoing occupation attacks, international
00:22:57calls are renewed to affirm Syria's sovereignty
00:23:01and respect for the 1974 Separation of Forces
00:23:03Agreement.
00:23:06Amid warnings from the Human
00:23:09Rights Commission of Israeli violations and the Security
00:23:12Council's call to abide by the agreement,
00:23:14international demands are renewed to stop incursions
00:23:18and protect civilians. Meanwhile, Damascus welcomes
00:23:22the UN stance.
00:23:29in southern Syria, international movements are intensifying
00:23:32calling for an end to Israeli violations amidst
00:23:35UN warnings of their
00:23:38civilians. In the latest field
00:23:41developments, an occupation force consisting of two
00:23:45tanks and six military vehicles infiltrated the village
00:23:48of Al-Msheirfeh in the Quneitra countryside. It searched civilian
00:23:51homes, and a force consisting of
00:23:55three military vehicles infiltrated
00:23:58the road of the town of Darayya in the Damascus
00:24:01countryside, and conducted thorough
00:24:04and passersby on the road. The United
00:24:07Nations Human Rights Commission, which documented
00:24:11280 Israeli military incursions during
00:24:14last September, the highest toll since the beginning
00:24:17of the year, called through its representative
00:24:22for an end to harassment and intimidation and for
00:24:25an urgent and impartial investigation into the killing and injury of
00:24:29civilians, noting
00:24:32least 49 Syrians and reports of torture
00:24:36and ill-treatment. This
00:24:38comes at a time when the
00:24:40UN Security Council renewed its call for the full
00:24:44implementation of the 1974 Disengagement of Forces
00:24:48Agreement,
00:24:51stressing the need to ensure the safety of the United
00:24:54Nations Disengagement Observer Force (UNDOF)
00:24:58and the security of its personnel
00:25:01in parallel with emphasizing Syria's sovereignty
00:25:05and territorial integrity.
00:25:08For its part, Damascus welcomed the UN stance,
00:25:10renewing its support for UNDOF's work
00:25:14in monitoring field conditions and documenting
00:25:17violations, stating in a statement
00:25:20issued by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Expatriates
00:25:23its adherence to its full rights
00:25:26and its commitment to the principles of the United
00:25:30Nations Charter and relevant international legitimacy resolutions, emphasizing
00:25:34the need to respect its sovereignty in a way that enhances regional
00:25:37and international peace and security. The Permanent
00:25:41Representative of Syria to the United Nations, Ibrahim
00:25:45Al-Alabi, considered that the Security Council's move
00:25:48confirms the validity of the agreement and respect for the mandate
00:25:51of the United Nations Force, pointing out that Syrian
00:25:54diplomacy is working to mobilize the international community to pressure
00:25:58Tel Aviv and stop its incursions in southern
00:26:01Syria. Between humanitarian
00:26:04and human rights warnings and political and diplomatic
00:26:08positions, the biggest challenge in the Syrian
00:26:11file remains translating international calls into
00:26:15practical steps that ensure the protection of civilians
00:26:18and stop Israeli
00:26:21the region. For Palestine TV,

00:28:08563 million shekels in seven
00:28:12months.
00:28:15International Monetary Fund and World Bank
00:28:18meetings begin to discuss serious risks to global
00:28:21economic
00:28:22growth.
00:28:27Income tax revenues in Palestine reached about
00:28:30563 million
00:28:32shekels during the first seven months of the current year.
00:28:36According to Ministry of Finance data, income
00:28:39tax revenues constituted about 32% of
00:28:43total local tax revenues of
00:28:471 billion and 738
00:28:50million shekels during the same period, while
00:28:54its share amounted to about
00:28:567.6% of net taxes.
00:28:597 billion and 4,000 and
00:29:0234 million shekels, and these
00:29:05data highlight the importance of income tax in providing
00:29:09local revenues to the public treasury, as
00:29:12it represents nearly a third of local taxes, which
00:29:16enhances its role in supporting the financial resources available
00:29:20to the National Authority in light of the continued financial
00:29:23crisis
00:29:24of the government.
00:29:29The olive harvest season in Palestine is
00:29:32a season of joy for the harvest, but settler gangs
00:29:36and the occupation army have turned joy
00:29:39into a confrontation fraught with dangers
00:29:45the West Bank. Among trees inherited by citizens from
00:29:48their fathers and grandfathers, and lands
00:29:51that are their source of livelihood and their connection to their roots,
00:29:54attacks and threats are escalating, and farmers
00:29:58are besieged in their fields in an attempt
00:30:01to prevent them from reaching their lands and harvesting
00:30:05their fruits. More in Ashraf Hussein's
00:30:08report.
00:30:13A scene whose brutality multiplies with every
00:30:16olive harvest season. An army prevents farmers from reaching
00:30:19their livelihoods and wages war on olive trees, and a settler
00:30:23reaps what he did not sow, in an open theft
00:30:26of the resources of an entire people who were waiting for this season
00:30:30to reap their promised livelihood,
00:30:34الارض وثمرها ولقمه العيش. ولا تقف الخسائر
00:30:38عند الاشجار التي تقتلع او الثمار التي تسرق، بل
00:30:41تمتد الى موسم يشكل مصدرا رئيسيا للدخل
00:30:45للالاف العائلات الفلسطينيه ورافعه لقطاع زراعي
00:30:48يرتبط به انتاج زيت الزيتون والصناعه
00:30:52الغذائيه والتجاره المحليه. ومع تصاعد
00:30:55الاعتداءات والقيود المفروضه على الوصول الى
00:30:58الاراضي تتراجع قدره المزارعين على جني محاص.
00:31:03في وقت تشير فيه التقديرات الى ان خسائر انتاج زيت
00:31:06الزيتون قد تتجاوز 25%
00:31:10خلال الموسم الحالي نتيجه تعثر الوصول الى
00:31:14مساحات و الاراضي
00:31:16المزروعه
00:31:18اليوم صح لنا فرصه ان شاء الله نلقط
00:31:22الزيتون المستوطنين
00:31:25اصحاب التلال هذول المجرمين كانوا
00:31:28يجدوا في زيتوننا الاسبوع الماضي ونحن حددنا
00:31:32اليوم على سب نيجي كانا بنسرك في زيتوننا سرقه

00:31:3936 40 دنوم اه
00:31:41نجيراننا كلهم ما خل
00:31:47خساره لا تعني تراجع كميه الزيت فحسب بل
00:31:50تنعكس ايضا على دخل الاسر وتلحق الضرر
00:31:54بالمزارعين واصحاب المعاصر وتؤدي الى
00:31:57انكماش حركه البيع والتجاره في الاسواق
00:32:00الفلسطينيه وتتضاعف هذه التداعيات في ظل
00:32:03ازمه اقتصاديه خانقه اذ تعتمد
00:32:06عائلات كثيره على عائدات الموسم لتامين
00:32:09احتياجاتها السنويه فيما يهدد تراجع
00:32:13الانتاج بزياده الضغوط. على سلسله الانتاج
00:32:16والتسويق وصولا الى المستهلك الفلسطيني وبين
00:32:20سرقه الثمار ومنع اصحاب الارض من الوصول
00:32:23اليها لا يخسر الفلسطيني محصول

00:32:29وامنه الاقتصادي في اعتداءات تستهدف الارض
00:32:33وما تنتجه لتحول موسم الزيتون من مصدر
00:32:36للرزق الى معركه للبقاء اشرف
00:32:40حسين تلفزيون
00:33:05المزارعين الى اي مدى تحولت سرقه
00:33:08ثمار الزيتون ومنع المزارعين من الوصول
00:33:11الى اراضيهم من اعتداء على محصول زراعي الى
00:33:15خساره اقتصاديه تطال دخل الاف
00:33:18الاسر وايضا فرص العمل والاسواق
00:33:20الفلسطينيه
00:33:23ايه نعم يعني انت يعني الجميع يعلم ان
00:33:27بالنسبه لنا موصل الزيتون او القطاع
00:33:30الزيتون تحديدا هو
00:33:33القطاع الزراعي بالاكمل
00:33:36والهزبه السمسه التي ينها
00:33:39الاحتلال و معاونيه من المستعمرين
00:33:42والمستوطنين هذا يعني هي بخطه
00:33:45ممنهجه ل من اجل كسر
00:33:48مكومات الصمود و ومن اجل
00:33:51كسر الاقتصاد الفلسطيني وبالتالي
00:33:54فانه كان العبث في موسم الزيتون
00:33:58بطريقه يعني كانت عنيفه جدا
00:34:01وممنهجه من قبل ال
00:34:04المستوطنين انتسروا بكافه المحافظات الضفه الغربيه
00:34:08وايضا منعوا المزارعين من الوصول الى
00:34:11اراضيهم من اجل تقوير سبر العيش.
00:34:15للمزارعين كنا نتوقع ان الموسم
00:34:18السابق كان بحوالي تقريبا 130 الف دونم لم
00:34:22يستطيع الوصول لها حاليا نحن نتوقع
00:34:25220 الف دونم بسبب انتصار المستوطنين
00:34:29و زعران التلال الذين يتراسون هذه
00:34:33الخطه ال المنهجيه
00:34:36الاستعماريه من اجل منع الوصول الى
00:34:40منع وصول المزارعين الى اراضيهم ومحاوله
00:34:43تفريغ الارض من ساكن
00:34:46ومن والاستفاده من خيرات هذه البلاد وبالتالي
00:34:49هي محاوله لتفريغ الارض ومحاوله
00:34:53للسيطره عليها طبعا هذا هدف
00:34:56سياسي اسرائيلي واضح لانه
00:34:59ممنهج عبر السنوات ولكن زادت الوثيره
00:35:05الموسم وتحديدا اذا بنحكي عن من
00:35:09250 لغايه هذا التاريخ
00:35:12120 تقريبا ما يقار
00:35:15حوالي 5000 شجره
00:35:17و415 5415
00:35:21شجره تم اقتلاعها وانتهاكها او قفعها او
00:35:24تكسيرها بالاضافه الى مئات الدبلومات التي
00:35:27لم نستطع لغايه الان حصرها بالتحديد
00:35:31بسبب انتصار المستوجنين ومنع المزارعين من الوصول الى
00:35:35اراضيهم ولكن الموثقين في الميدان
00:35:38يتواصلون مع المزارعين ومع المجالس المحليه
00:35:41من اجل التحديد بالضبط ما هي مناطق
00:35:45ولكن تم تحديد البؤر او تحديد النقاط
00:35:49الساخنه التي لم يستطيع الوصول اليها
00:35:52المزارعين وعلى ضوء ذلك قامتت وزاره الزراعه
00:35:55باعداد
00:35:58او باطلاق حمله قطف الزيتون
00:36:002026 هذه الحمله مشكله
00:36:04من كافه شرائح المجتمع الفلسطيني سواء
00:36:07مؤسسات حكوميه او غير حكوميه وايضا
00:36:11وهناك منظمات الدفاع عن حقوق
00:36:15و منظمات دوليه وغير دوليه
00:36:19والجامعات وكل من له علاقه بممكن ان
00:36:23يقف بالجهات الطوعيه كمان المؤسسات
00:36:26ال الفاعله الوطنيه تقوم
00:36:29بجنبا الى جنب في اعداد غرف عمليات في كل
00:36:33محافظه من محافظات الوطن هذه المحافظه
00:36:36سيتراسها المحافظ
00:36:39التنفيذ مدير عام مديريه
00:36:41الزراعه بتحديد هذه الحمله
00:36:45وبمناسبه المزارعين
00:36:48لتسجيل للوصول الى ارضيهم بشكل جماعي
00:36:52حتى لا يستطيع المستوطن
00:36:54بالاستفراد بالمزارعين عند الوصول الى
00:36:58نعم تقديراتكم مهندسه ايمان حول كميات
00:37:01الزيتون الذي يتم سرقطه او قيمه يعني
00:37:05الخسائر الماليه الناتجه عن هذه
00:37:08الاعتداءات حتى الان
00:37:11يعني لما نحكي عن حوالي 5000
00:37:14شجره تقريبا ما يقارب 3 مليون
00:37:17ونص دولار التي اييه
00:37:20سجلت على نظام حصر الاضرار
00:37:22وكبرت لقطع الصجر ولكن بالنسبه
00:37:26لكمال هناك موضوع سرقه الثمار سرقه
00:37:29الثمار بيحكي عن تقريبا حوالي لا يقل
00:37:33عن ما يقارب
00:37:36نحكي عن 14 عن 4 طن يعني
00:37:394,غرام يعني ما يقارب حوالي اربعه
00:37:4315000 دولار كمان من
00:37:46قيمه فرقه الثمار نهيك عن طبعا
00:37:50تقدير الاراضي اللي بعدهم مش واصلينها برضه كمان
00:37:53هي في يعني يمكن انه يعني نحن ب
00:37:57متوقع ان يكون هناك تقدير حسب تقدير السمارات انه
00:38:01يكون عندنا 21 طن من الزيت هذا العام
00:38:04amid a battle over land, its fruits, and livelihood.
00:38:07The losses do not stop at the uprooted trees or
00:38:11the stolen fruits, but extend to a season that constitutes a major source of income
00:38:15for thousands of Palestinian families and a driver
00:38:18for an agricultural sector that is linked to the production
00:38:22of olive oil, the food industry, and local
00:38:24trade. With the escalation
00:38:28imposed on access to land, the ability
00:38:32of farmers to harvest their crops is declining. At a time when estimates
00:38:35indicate that olive oil production losses may exceed
00:38:3825% during the current season
00:38:42due to difficulty in accessing areas and
00:38:47lands. Today we had a chance, God
00:38:50willing, to pick olives.
00:38:53The settlers, the owners of these criminal
00:38:58hills, were harvesting our olives last
00:39:02week, and we scheduled today to come at seven, as if
00:39:05we were stealing our olives. They bulldozed this entire land. Here you have about
00:39:0936 to 40 dunams.
00:39:13Our neighbors all did not
00:39:16The loss does not only mean a decrease in the amount of oil, but
00:39:19also affects family incomes and harms
00:39:24owners, and leads to a contraction in sales
00:39:27and trade in Palestinian markets. These repercussions
00:39:30are exacerbated in light of a suffocating
00:39:33economic crisis, as many families depend on
00:39:37the season's revenues to secure their annual needs, while
00:39:40the decline in production threatens to increase pressures
00:39:55season's crop, but a part of his income
00:39:58and economic security in attacks that target the land and its produce, turning
00:40:02the olive season from a source of livelihood into a battle
00:40:06for survival. Ashraf Hussein, Palestine
00:40:09TV. We remain, viewers, in the same
00:40:13context. We are joined by phone by agricultural engineer Iman
00:40:15Jarrar, Director General of Farmers' Services in the Ministry
00:40:19of Agriculture. Engineer Iman, welcome to the Economic
00:40:22Scene. Welcome to you, and may God give you good health.
00:40:26Welcome. Speaking of the repercussions of the current
00:40:29situation, with settler attacks on farmers, to what
00:40:32extent has the theft of olive fruits and the prevention
00:40:35of farmers from accessing their lands turned from an attack
00:40:38on an agricultural crop into an economic
00:40:41loss affecting the income of thousands of families
00:40:44and also job opportunities and Palestinian
00:40:48markets? Yes, everyone knows
00:40:50that for us, the olive
00:40:52season, or the olive
00:40:55constitutes 60% of the entire
00:40:59agricultural sector. And the seven crimes that
00:41:03the occupation and its collaborators
00:41:06from settlers and colonists commit, this
00:41:09means that it is a systematic plan to
00:41:13break the elements of steadfastness
00:41:16and to break the Palestinian
00:41:19economy. Therefore,
00:41:32the settlers. They spread throughout all governorates of the West
00:41:35Bank, and also prevented
00:41:39farmers from reaching their lands in order
00:41:42to weaken the livelihoods of farmers. We
00:41:46expected that in the previous season, approximately 130,000
00:41:49dunams could
00:41:52Currently, we expect 220,000
00:41:56dunams due to the spread of settlers
