clearing the land
15Apr11
Palestinian villager Ibrahaim Salah faced a rude welcome after arriving at his olive grove Tuesday, claiming that his trees were cut down by settlers.
“I arrived at my land Tuesday morning and couldn’t believe my eyes,” said the Samaria resident, who is allowed to access his grove only a few times a year with a security escort. “We found some 150 olive trees that are dozens of years old cut down.”
So apparently, this land is part of ‘a disputed area’.
