Israel trying to 'eliminate' living conditions for Palestinians in occupied West Bank, says report

Israel is systematically eroding the living conditions of Palestinians in the West Bank, according to a new report by B tselem. The organization alleges that the Israeli government is intensifying attacks on various aspects of daily life for Palestinians, such as work, education, healthcare, and access to family and friends. B tselem describes this as an "elimination project" aimed at creating a contiguous, institutionalized Jewish presence in the West Bank while fragmenting Palestinian existence.

The report argues that Palestinians have three options: submit to Jewish supremacy, leave the territory, or face violent suppression. The situation in the West Bank is not a temporary crisis or isolated violations, but an ongoing, accelerated phase of an elimination project driven by a settler-colonial logic of dispossession and dispossession.
