Numerous stories are told, but there are no specific counts of how
many deaths occur specifically because of the olive harvest or the olive trees.
The latest incident occurred Sunday October 6, 2002 near the village of Aqraba in the West Bank. A Jewish settler shot two Palestinians while they were harvesting their olives. The 22 year old Palestinian man died and the other was wounded.(Palestine Monitor BBC)
Olive farmers complain that the harassment by the settlers ranges from “theft of the harvests, burning and chopping down of trees, to violent physical attacks, including shooting.” (Palestine Monitor)

Ghaleb Jibril, a 70 year old farmer from Kufr Qalil, north of Nablus “went with his sons and brothers to check on his land after hearing that settlers had been harvesting his olives. Before he could reach his property, the family members were attacked by settlers wielding sticks, stones and guns. Jibril was severely injured, with bruises all over his body. The settler escaped to the Barkha with three large bags of olives.”

Another 70 year old farmer Mohammad Zalumud was killed while he was picking olives on his farm. Reportedly the settlers crushed his skull with large rocks, before escaping back to their settlements. The suspected killers were set free after only 1 week in detention because police claimed there was insufficient evidence from Palestinian witnesses.
