NABLUS: Israeli colonists at night on Monday set fire to several Palestinian-owned heavy machinery and vandalized a plantation nursery near the village of Deir Sharaf, west of Nablus, according to the owner.

The owner of Al-Junaidi plantation nursery, Maher al-Junaidi, told WAFA that colonists stormed the plantation, damaged trees, and set fire to two bulldozers, a truck and a forklift, causing severe losses and damage.

The owner explained that he was informed of the attack by the security guard at the plantation, who was forced to go into hiding at the time of the attack in fear for his life.

Eyewitnesses reported that dozens of colonists blocked the main road leading to the city of Tulkarem and attacked the vehicles of Palestinian residents passing near the intersection west of Deir Sharaf, causing damage to several vehicles.
