West Bank herders use donkeys and trenches to move milk under cover of darkness

Friday, 25 September 2026, 06:33 · 1 min read

Palestinian herders in the West Bank are resorting to transporting milk through earthen trenches by donkey at night, after access restrictions severed their usual routes to grazing land and markets. Farmers say a lack of roads and newly imposed movement limits have made daytime travel too dangerous, with fears of arrest forcing them to conduct the journeys after dark before transferring the churns to a truck on a rough track. The improvised method highlights the severe impact of movement restrictions on Palestinian agricultural livelihoods in the occupied West Bank.
