Local sources cited by the Wafa news agency report that Israeli settlers attacked the Abu Falah village northeast of Ramallah in the occupied West Bank and cut down olive trees on Palestinian land.

Another incursion was reported in the Duma town, located south of Nablus, where settlers uprooted olive and grape trees and threatened Palestinians not to enter their lands.

The latest attacks come hours after settlers injured several Palestinians and burned vehicles after storming two villages in the occupied territory.
