Israel's outgoing government has significantly transformed the West Bank through expanded land seizures, military restrictions, mass displacement, and the establishment of over 100 new Jewish settlements, according to reports by Shatha Yaish, Oren Ziv, and Basel Adra. The displacement of 4,000 Palestinians from Hebron in four days, following an attack on Israeli soldiers, has been described as a clear example of the government's strategy to engineer a new reality, according to Issa Amro.

The community is divided on whether these actions are justified for security reasons or constitute a deliberate policy of ethnic cleansing. Some argue that the government's actions are necessary for security, while others claim they are a calculated effort to displace Palestinians and establish Jewish settlements. Shatha Yaish, Oren Ziv, and Basel Adra all emphasize how the government's policies have reshaped Palestinian life, fragmented the West Bank, and disrupted daily life.

The weight of opinion points to a consensus that Israel's outgoing government has significantly altered the West Bank through land seizures, military actions, and settlement expansion. However, the fault lines remain between those who see these actions as necessary for security and those who view them as a strategy of ethnic cleansing.
