Israeli occupation forces prevented residents from picking olives in the villages of Al-Zawiya and Marda, north and west of Salfit, on Sunday evening, Shehab Wire reported. The forces detained several women while they were working in the agricultural lands.
The incident occurred during the olive harvest season, when Palestinian farmers typically gather their crops from orchards across the occupied West Bank.
