Israel pursuing 'elimination project' of Palestinians in the occupied West Bank, NGO B'Tselem says

In a report published on Monday, the Israeli human rights group described the situation of the three million Palestinians who live in the territory occupied by Israel since 1967 as 'apartheid.' The organization argues that violence by Jewish settlers, which has intensified in recent months, is only the most visible part of a 'political system' aimed at 'erasing the Palestinian presence.'
