Soldiers turn farmers away from their own groves and take their ID cards

In the harvest's first days, Israeli forces turned owners away from their land in Deir Istiya, Farkha, Haris, az-Zawiya and Silwan, confiscating ID cards and sometimes tools, according to WAFA. In Beita the army halted a harvest after settlers arrived, the fourth such shutdown that weekend per Haaretz. Settlers took olives, ladders and tarps in Sinjil, where resident Ayed Jafry says thefts are near-daily.
