Theism is the belief in God, Atheism is the absense of belief in God, so they are largely opposites. The only similarities is that they are both concepts associated with the philosophy of religion.

Is atheism connected to ethnic cleansing?

Atheism is the lack of belief in deities and is not connected to ethnic cleansing at all. Ethnic cleansing could be believed to be something a deity calls for so, in that manner, theism (belief in deities) is more connected to ethnic cleansing than atheism. It's possible for atheists to engage in ethnic cleansing but they do it for reasons other than atheism.

Atheists come from diverse cultural backgrounds and often wear the same clothing as those in their respective societies.
