NABLUS, (PIC)-- Tens of Jewish fanatic settlers on Monday cut more than 150 fruitful olive trees only few days before their harvesting near Burin village, south of Nablus.

Ghassan Daghlas, monitoring settlement activity in north of the West Bank, said in a press statement that dozens of settlers from the Yitzhar settlement used chain saws to cut off the trees in Khilat Siwar area.

Daghlas described the act as "criminal", and asked human rights groups to intervene to end such acts.
