The Israeli occupation forces (IOF) on Wednesday morning uprooted perennial olive trees owned by Palestinians in Jab'ah village, south of Bethlehem in the West Bank.

According to local sources, the IOF used two bulldozers to uproot the trees in Khilat Farwanah area of the village.

The IOF cordoned off the area as local farmers were watching the bulldozers wreaking havoc on their olive groves.

The olive groves belonged to Izzat Hasan and Ahmed Abdul-Latif.
