olive leaves are being eaten by somebody

I own an olive tree that has very very small leaves.

Recently i noticed that those leaves are being eaten by somebody.
Most of the new leaves are partial or completely missing & it looks like some kind of bug is eating them [by the shape of the bites]
I never saw any bug around the tree & it's quitre strange since none of the trees around have that problem.
I now suspect that the fact that the tree has so small leaves is due to the fact that the bug makes a good job on every new leave.

How can i treat it ?
