In the quiet village of Nilin in the West Bank, a profound economic crisis is gripping its residents. The olive trees, standing tall and ancient, are a reminder of a time long before the Palestinian families' livelihoods became entangled in the complex web of Israeli occupation.
Ten years ago, when Israel established a checkpoint near the Mousa family's land, they were forced to relinquish their ancestral farm and convert it into a parking lot for Palestinian workers crossing into Israel. However, since October 7th, when Hamas militants attacked Israel from the Gaza Strip, Palestinian workers from the West Bank have been barred from entering Israel, leaving the family in dire straits.
