More than 7,500 olive trees were damaged by Israeli army and settler attacks in 2012, according to a UN report. More than 4,000 olive trees have already been damaged so far this year.

Some 800,000 olive trees have been uprooted by Israeli authorities since 1967, according to Oxfam. The loss of olive trees equates to $12.3 million in annual lost income for the 80,000 Palestinian families who depend on the trees for their livelihoods, according to UNOCHA.
