Amnesty International has accused Israel of a state-backed campaign of forced displacement of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank of the Jordan River. The organization claims that Israeli actions are directed primarily against Bedouin and shepherd communities and are intended to create conditions for further annexation of the territory. Die Zeit ↗
According to the published information, the accusations concern the displacement of hundreds of Bedouins and other residents of rural areas. Amnesty has described the practice as a serious violation of international law and claims that these are not isolated incidents but a deliberately conducted policy. The organization also points out that behind the pressure on local residents stand not only Israeli authorities but also a broader system supporting settlements in the occupied territory. n-tv ↗
Reports state that the affected communities face pressure from Israeli forces and settlers, with the result said to be a gradual emptying of Palestinian areas. In this connection, Amnesty is calling for measures to be adopted against the displacement of Palestinian Bedouins and shepherds. Spiegel.de ↗
The topic comes at a time when international attention is once again focused on the situation in the West Bank of the Jordan River and on the expansion of Israeli settlements. Further developments will depend on Israel's response, on international partners, and on whether concrete diplomatic or legal steps follow. Tagesspiegel ↗
