Security forces use live fire to disperse ongoing clashes that broke out after settlers reportedly uprooted trees in Kusra, south of Nablus.
Six Palestinians were hit by live fire during a violent incident that took place with settlers from the Alei-Ayin settlement south of Nablus on Monday evening, the IDF spokesperson said. Settlers reported one injury sustained from thrown rocks.

The moral of the story is: Don’t ‘Clash’ with the Settlers.

Not sure what is going on there. That part of the world is not known for an abundance of trees -- and I understood that olive trees were held in particularly hig esteem there...
What gives?
