Jun 11, 2026
Berlin [Germany], June 11: Amnesty International has accused Israel's government of having made the formal annexation of the occupied West Bank a declared policy goal. "Over the past three and a half years Israeli authorities have accelerated a state-sponsored campaign of ethnic cleansing in the West Bank, uprooting, dispossessing and forcibly transferring Palestinian communities," said Amnesty International Secretary General Agnes Callamard in a statement issued on Wednesday.
