Farmer Safian Sabah, 53, has begun monitoring his land at dawn each day to protect his tomato crop from rodent attacks, Shehab Wire reported. The infestation now poses his most pressing concern as harvest season approaches, threatening significant losses to his produce before he can gather the crop.
Rodent infestations have intensified across Gaza's agricultural areas, forcing farmers to intensify their vigilance and spend extended hours guarding their fields. The pest invasions have become a widespread problem affecting multiple cultivators in the territory's farming regions.
