TULKAREM: Israeli occupation forces tonight bulldozed a privately-owned plantation nursery owned by a Palestinian farmer south of the city of Tulkarem, according to the owner.
The owner of the plantation nursery, Ahmad al-Rabi, told WAFA correspondent that the occupation’s heavy bulldozers destroyed a large part of the nursery, which is set up on 80 dunums of land, stretching from the west of the city to the south, without any prior warning.
This caused the destruction of about 10 dunums of land planted with various trees, such as olive, citrus and other fruits.
The occupation forces also prevented the owner from inspecting the damage to the nursery.
This is the third such attack against the nursery; it was previously set on fire by the occupation’s heavy firing of flash and sound grenades, under the pretext of preventing workers from using a nearby road to reach their workplaces in the 1948-occupied territories.
