GateNews

According to CCTV News, Israel’s law mandating capital punishment for Palestinians took effect on the night of May 17. The legislation authorizes judges to sentence West Bank Palestinians to death for what the law defines as deadly attacks. The law was approved by Israel’s parliament on March 30 and has been widely criticized as discriminatory. The law requires military courts to impose death sentences for such cases unless special circumstances warrant life imprisonment.
