Former Israeli military generals have offered their assistance to Palestinian olive farmers in the occupied West Bank, Al Jazeera reports.
The gesture comes at a time when olive cultivation remains a vital part of the rural economy for many Palestinian communities, providing both income and cultural heritage.
While the identities of the ex‑generals were not disclosed, the group has expressed a willingness to share expertise and resources that could help improve yields and protect olive groves from environmental and political pressures.
The West Bank has been under Israeli occupation since 1967, and Palestinian farmers often face restrictions on land use, movement, and access to water and markets.
The offer has been described as an unusual act of cross‑community cooperation, though no further details have been released about the scope or implementation of the assistance.
