Amnesty: Settler Violence Used for Ethnic Cleansing in West Bank
Amnesty International's report accuses the Israeli occupation of using violence by state-supported settlers as a means to forcibly displace Palestinians from the West Bank, as part of a campaign of ethnic cleansing aimed at changing the demographic makeup of the area. The report observed an escalation in settler attacks since late 2022, particularly against Bedouin and nomadic communities in Area C, documenting worsening conditions with increased displacement, settlement expansion, and restrictions on Palestinian movement, along with arming settlers and encouraging their assaults. The report also noted that the olive harvest season witnesses attacks by settlers, including assaults on farmers and journalists, with military restrictions intensifying, posing economic damages and losses for Palestinians. The organization called on the international community to impose sanctions against Israeli officials, ban trade with settlements, and cease supplying them with weapons to hold those responsible for these violations accountable.
