What is "al-janiya"

Al-Janiya is a Palestinian village in the Ramallah and al-Bireh Governorate, located 8 kilometers northwest of Ramallah in the northern West Bank. According to the Palestinian Central Bureau of Statistics (PCBS), the village had a population of 1,400 inhabitants by late 2014.

Farming on local land is now difficult, since Israeli authorities have declared much of it, enclosing olive groves, a 'closed military zone', which Palestinian farmers are allowed to access on average only 2 days a year, and many of the trees are uprooted by settlers.
