Amman, June 10 (Petra) -- Amnesty International has accused Israel of executing a state-led "ethnic cleansing" campaign targeting Palestinian Bedouin and herding communities in the occupied West Bank.

According to an AFP report, the human rights organization stated in a publication on Wednesday that the core objective of this state-sponsored campaign is to rapidly accelerate the annexation of Palestinian territories.

"Israeli authorities are accelerating annexation through a state-driven campaign of ethnic cleansing targeting Palestinian Bedouin and herding communities," the rights group detailed in its report, focusing on rural communities in the West Bank, which Israel has occupied since 1967.
