According to an Israeli human rights organization, the Israeli occupation troops are "responsible for committing a war crime" by forcibly displacing Palestinians in the occupied West Bank.
At least six Palestinian communities in the West Bank were reported to have been driven from their homes due to Israeli settlers' violence, according to the Israeli Information Center for Human Rights in the Occupied Territories, B'Tselem.
Furthermore, citizens residing in the regions the occupation aims to rule continue to have a harsh quality of life that compels them to leave their homes and lands. 
The center cited daily settler actions that have become a horrifying habit for numerous Palestinian villages, such as driving shepherds out of their fields, assaulting locals physically, breaking into their homes at night, setting fire to them, and stealing. This violence is carried out with the support and encouragement of the occupation administration.
