During the #Nakba in 1948, #Palestinian #refugees lost some 4.6 million dunums of #farmland, which the #Israeli state quickly appropriated for Jewish-only agricultural settlements.

The Ongoing Nakba continues to take a heavy toll on farmers, fishers, and pastoralists across #historic #Palestine.

In besieged #Gaza, 35% of agricultural land is inaccessible due to Israeli #military measures.

In the #occupied #WestBank, 63% of agricultural land is under complete Israeli control in Area C, with #Palestinian rural communities in Area C being some of the most vulnerable to Israeli policies of forced #displacement.

Israel’s wall cuts off more than 10% of the West Bank, forcing thousands of Palestinian farmers to constantly petition Israeli authorities for permits to access their own land beyond the wall.
