Call for the Release of Ghassan Najjar!
Najjar is a prominent Palestinian farmer, land defender, and co-founder of the Burin Land and Farming Cooperative.
Israel’s secret police, Shin Bet, threated Ghassan with detention if he continued to coordinate local farmers for this year’s olive harvest. Taken from his home in the middle of the night last week, he is now being held without charge.
