A UN report highlights the alarming displacement of 36,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank due to the expansion of Israeli settlements, pointing to potential ethnic cleansing.
The United Nations has raised concerns over the unprecedented displacement of over 36,000 Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, as reported by the High Commissioner for Human Rights, Volker Türk. The report describes the recent expansion of Israeli settlements as 'dramatic,' indicating that such actions contribute to a level of mass displacement not previously observed. This situation is deemed illegal under international law, which prohibits forced relocations of populations.
