Israeli "settlers" have increased attacks on Palestinian olive farmers in the occupied West Bank, stealing crops and restricting access to agricultural land.

The Israeli rights organization Yesh Din recorded 168 olive thefts and 125 physical attacks in just 24 days.

The Palestinian authorities claim that three people were killed during this year's harvest.

According to reports, "settlers" take stolen olives to nearby outposts to produce and sell olive oil.
