The attack came days after the settlers set fire to a house and a car in the village as part of an increase in attacks against the people and property of the village according to a media report.

The Israeli occupation continues to uproot olive trees in different Palestinian villages, towns and cities with no apparent reason and employing bulldozers if the acts are carried out by the Israeli army to make sure the trees no longer exist.
