Settler violence is facilitating ‘ethnic cleansing’, UN experts warn

Settler violence is facilitating ‘ethnic cleansing’, UN experts warn Fourteen UN human rights experts, including UN Special Rapporteur on the Occupied Palestinian Territory Francesca Albanese, have issued a “stark warning about surging Israeli settler terror” in the occupied West Bank, including occupied East Jerusalem. The experts said the attacks “have become a daily terror in Palestinian lives, sowing fear, uncertainty, and profound insecurity that inevitably compels the forcible displacement of the indigenous population”. They added that the “relentless attacks by the settler-colonial movement” were being carried out “with the support and acquiescence” of Israel, warning that “full impunity” for the escalating violence was “facilitating ethnic cleansing”.
